Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
HaNSB 15: "dry" for "{k}b{r}", dbr or dbb for {k}b{r}
Commentary
It is possible the letter read as a f should be read as a s². The space between ḥbb and {f} does not appear to be large enough to permit a verb, but the author could have squeezed it in. The h following {f} could be one of two things: (1) a 3ms clitic pronoun, "PN, Verb-him booty" or (2) the definite article/demonstrative, yielding "PN VERBed the/this booty." The absence of a deity name tips the scale slightly in favor of the latter interpretation.
