Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
HaNS 371: s¹ʿd h rḍw m- h- ʿṣ for ¹ʿd-h rḍw m- h- nṣʿ; translation: Aid him, O Rḍw, against hardship and affliction (sāʿid-hu ya͗ Rḍw mina 'l-šiddah wal-balāʾ).
Commentary
HaNSB omits the patronym and the third letter from the end, which is a short dash, and reverses the order of the last letters. The Lisān explains that the root nṣʿ refers to the puriest state of all things (al-ḫāliṣ min kulli šayʾ). When used concerning humans, it means "to show one's true self", usually referring to enmity.
