l qn bn {{ʾ}}ṣll bn ʾʿr bn nḥ{ḍ}
Translation
By Qn son of {ʾṣll} son of ʾʿr son of {Nḥḍ}

Interpretation

Commentary
The b's and n's of the first two bn's have been joined together and the forks of the ʾ have been closed by lines to give the letter the appearance of a ṯ. The crossbars of the last letter are rather carelessly done and doubtful.
