For all of its detail, this article fails to mention where this inscription was originally found, or provide any information about its current location. (19th century archeologists frequently "collected" such monuments to outfit the museums in their home countries.) -- llywrch (talk) 06:56, 28 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Transcription and Translation

edit

I corrected some errors in the transcription and preserved the word markers and line breaks. The line "He gave me a maid for the price of a sheep, and a man for the price of a garment." was also missing in the translation, so I substituted Gibson's whole translation because that's what I have access to. I preserved the line breaks in the translation, too, but I'm not sure the usefulness of that outweighs the decreased readability. I can't work out how to right-align the Hebrew, though -- when I tried it would end up squishing along the reference list for some reason. Quadriporticus (talk) 08:04, 26 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
