דכרין לטב יוסה בר יודן בר זקה וחלפיא בר אמן

Remembered be for good Yose son of Yudan son of Zaqah and Hala[f]ya son [...Amen].

דכרין לטב יוסה בר יודן בר זקה וחלפיא בר אמן

First part of inscription is preserved, but was originally longer. Dimensions listed above are for entire panel. The inscription denotes a donation made by two different people, not necessarily of the same family. The origin of the grandfather's name, Zaqah, is questionable. The letter bet in the the word bar following Halafya is smaller and appears suspended, perhaps due to lack of space. The destroyed section has enough room to reconstruct the name of Halfya's father and the concluding "Amen," which may have appeared twice as in other inscriptions.
