Ρ μνῆμαῬουβη οἱιοῦἸακοβ Πενταπολίτη

Grave/tomb of Roube, son of Jacob from Pentapolis.

The rho at the beginning of line 1 is a mistake: probably the carver began to inscribe the name, realized something was missing and started over, leaving the rho. For the name of deceased, see Jaff 0036. Patronymic appears in Jaff 0021, 0031, 0039, 0047 and possibly 0072.
