Lines 1 and 2 of this incomplete inscription are a quotation from Ps. 117:15a-16b (with the last word με replaced by ἡμᾶς.) Too little of line 3 remains to allow for interpretation. The square lettering, characteristic of many ecclesiastical inscriptions in this region in the early Byzantine era, suggests the fifth or sixth century date. Dimensions refer to entire remainder of the stone.
