[I am in the place of the Beating of the Land,] without being provided with the necessities. It is such that there are neither people to knead clay bricks, nor is there straw (for the bricks) in the vicinity. The things that I have purchased as supplies] will dwindle, [〈even if〉 there is no donkey 〈to〉] steal them. [... ... ... ... ... ... When I once] open a Maziqda vessel [regarding the case of opening a Maziqda vessel], which is filled with Qedi beer, [and people come out to raise the "glass" outside (?), then there are 200 large dogs and 300 wolf jackals, total: 500 (animals), that stand ready at the front door every day, no matter how often I go out, because they have smelled the $sbr$ liquid (alcohol?, sediment?) since the $mn$ jug was opened. ... ... ...

Es ist so, daß es weder Menschen gibt, um Lehmziegel zu kneten, noch gibt es Stroh (für die Ziegel) in der Umgebung. Die Sachen, die ich als Bedarf angekauft habe,] werden dahinschwinden, [〈auch wenn〉 es keinen Esel gibt, 〈um〉] sie [zu rauben. ... ... ... ... ... ... Wenn ich mal] ein Maziqda-Gefäß [öffne (wörtl.: Was den Fall des Öffnens eines Maziqda-Gefäßes betrifft)], das [mit] Qedi-Bier gefüllt ist, [und Menschen kommen heraus, um draußen das "Glas" zu heben (?), dann gibt es 200 große Hunde sowie 300 Wolfsschakale, Summe: 500 (Tiere), die jeden Tag an der Haustür bereit stehen, wie oft ich auch hinausgehe, weil sie die $sbr$-Flüssigkeit (Alkohol?, Bodensatz?) gerochen haben, seit der $mn$-Krug geöffnet wurde. ... ... ...
