Notes
- Each line begins a verse; individual words vocalized; The fragment contains two Rahiṭim. From the first, the first three verses of the acrostic alphabet are missing, verses ד-ת are extant. The lead phrase of the verses alternates י'י מלך \ י'י ימלך. Ends: תולה ארץ על בלימה מושיע אדם; This appears to be fitting for Yom Kippur, but its proximity to the second Rahit suggests otherwise. The second is a complete version (verses א-ת) of the Kallirian Rahit for Ṿa-yoshaʹ. Starts אל אלהי עולם. The lead phrase alternates מלכותו כשתגלה \ י'י ימלך.
