Recto
- .. the soul is freed in vain...
- ... harm upon the Jews to destruction...
- And he began to write blameworthy things...
- And he said, “I will exhaust my ways among them.:
- “And I will destroy for them the homes.” For when
- he was alone with the oppressive king on a dark day;
- A gloomy, ominous (cursed) day upon our ancestors,
- disgraced, chosen from the craft
- of the people. He said to him, “O obeyed king.”

Verso
- Existing in your cities and the countryside and in ….
- laws and in the (statutes?)...
- A neglected disperse, condemned as useless.
- A few [people], and they are not among us,
- opposing our tradition and our religion,
- Leaving them among us humiliates us.
- and their removal, O master, adorns us.
- For if our master counts the precious,
- He can sell it to me worthless.
