Greek (transliteration)
- δέκα ἐτῶν πληρη[....]ων βασι[λ]εὺς
- Πιοδασσης εὐσέβεια[ν ἔδ]ε[ι]ξεν τοῖς ἀν-
- θρώποις, καὶ ἀπὸ τούτου εὐσεβεστέρους
- τοὺς ἀνθρώπους ἐποίησεν καὶ πάντα
- εὐθηνεῖ κατὰ πᾶσαν γῆν• καὶ ἀπέχεται
- βασιλεὺς τῶν ἐμψύχων καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ δὲ
- ἀνθρωποι καὶ ὅσοι θηρευταὶ ἤ αλιείς
- βασιλέως πέπαυνται θηρεύοντες καὶ
- εἲ τινες ἀκρατεῖς πέπαυνται τῆς ἀκρα-
- σίας κατὰ δύναμιν, καὶ ἐνήκοοι πατρὶ
- καὶ μητρὶ καὶ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων παρὰ
- τὰ πρότερον καὶ τοῦ λοιποῦ λῶιον
- καὶ ἄμεινον κατὰ πάντα ταῦτα
- ποιοῦντες διάξουσιν.
English (translation)
- Ten years (of reign) having been completed, King
- Piodasses (Ashoka) made known (the doctrine of)
- Piety (εὐσέβεια, Eusebeia) to men; and from this moment he has made
- men more pious, and everything thrives throughout
- the whole world. And the king abstains from (killing)
- living beings, and other men and those who (are)
- huntsmen and fishermen of the king have desisted
- from hunting. And if some (were) intemperate, they
- have ceased from their intemperance as was in their
- power; and obedient to their father and mother and to
- the elders, in opposition to the past also in the future,
- by so acting on every occasion, they will live better
- and more happily." (Trans. by G.P. Carratelli [1], see also here)
Aramaic (in Hebrew alphabet)
- שנן 10 פתיתו עביד זי מראן פרידארש מלכא קשיטא מהקשט
- מן אדין זעיר מרעא לכלהם אנשן וכלהם אדושיא הובד
- ובכל ארקא ראם שתי ואף זי זנה כמאכלא למראן מלכא זעיר
- קטלן זנה למחזה כלהם אנשן אתהחסינן אזי נוניא אחדן
- אלך אנשן פתיזבת כנם זי פרבסת הוין אלך אתהחסינן מן
- פרבסתי והופתיסתי לאמוהי ולאבוהי ולמזישתיא אנסן
- איך אסרהי חלקותא ולא איתי דינא לכלהם אנשיא חסין
- זנה הותיר לכלהם אנשן ואוסף יהותר.
