Interpretation

Commentary
The reading is from a hand-copy made by Dr Farouk Al-Rawi. The letter read as the second r is rather doubtful and then the rock is broken. There might be a further letter which is missing as a result and it is possible the following letter should be read as a ṣ or ṯ instead of a y.
