Translation as given in Andre Lemaire article:
1. I am Mesha, the son of Kemosh[ît], king of Mesha, the 2. Dibonite. My father ruled over Moab for 30 years, and I ruled 3. after my father. I made this high place for Kamosh in Qeriho, the high pla[ce of the Sa] 4. vior, for he saved me from all the kings and let me enjoy the sight of all my enemies. Omri 5. (was) king of Israel, and he oppressed Moab many days, for Kamosh was angry with his 6. land. And his son succeeded him, and he too said: "I will oppress Moab." In my days, he said so, 7. but I enjoyed his sight and that of his house. And Israel perished utterly forever. And Omri had taken possession of the land of 8. Medeba. And he dwelt in it in his days and the sum of the days of his sons: 40 years; but Kamosh 9. restored it in my days. And I built Baal-meon, and I made a reservoire in it; and I built 10. Qiryatên. And the men of Gad had dwelt in the land of Atarot from of old, and the king of Israel built 11. Atarot for himself; but I fought against the town and took it, and I slew all the people: 12. the town belonged to Kamosh and to Moab. And I brought thence the altar-hearth of his Beloved, and I dragged 13. it before Kamosh in Qirat/my town. And I settled in it the men of Sharon and the men of 14. Maharat. And Kamosh said to me: "Go! Take Nebo against Israel." And I 15. went by night and fought against it from break of dawn till noon. And I 16. took it and slew all: 7,000 men, boys, women, girls, 17. and pregnant women, because I had devoted it to Ashtar-Kamosh. And I took thence the altar- 18. hearths of YHWH, and I dragged them before Kamosh. And the King of Israel had built 19. Yahaz, and dwelt therein while he fought against me; but Kamosh drove him out before me, and 20. I took from Moab two hundred men, all the chiefs thereof, and I established them in Yahaz; and I took it 21. to add it to Dibon. I built Qeriho: the wall of the parkland and the wall 22. of the acropolis; and I built its gates, and I built its towers; and 23. I built the king's house; and I made banks for the water reservoir inside 24. the town; and there was no cistern inside the town, in Qeriho, and I said to all the people: "Make yourself 25. each a cistern in his house"; and I dug the ditches for Qeriho with prisoners 26. of Israel. I built Aroer, and I made the highway through the Arnon. 27. I built Bet-bamot, for it was destroyed; and I built Bezer, for it was in ruins. 28. [And] the men of Dibon were fitted out for war because all Dibon was obedient. And i ruled 29. [over a] hundred of towns that I added to the land. And I built 30.

- ) On an inquiry if other letters then `d' could have been written in line 31, A. Lemaire answered: "Mr. Todd's suggestion to study other possible restorations is natural. From the paleographic point of view, the missing letter could be almost any Moabite letter. However, there are not many north-west Semitic words in the form "-WD". After trying to find other solutions that would fit contextually, I saw none other than "[D]WD ([])". Since meeting several colleagues during the last five months, none has proposed another letter. I am waiting for any proposition of another reasonable restoration." [BAR, Nov/Dec, p. 72]{Presumably the sought for letters may be above the red line(?).}
The Translation of George Barton:
I am Mesha, son of Kemoshmelek, the king of Moab, the Dibonite. My father was king over Moab for thirty years, and I became king after my father.
And I made this high place for Kemosh in Qarhar . . . because of the deliverance of Mesha, and because he has saved me from all the kings and because he caused me to see [my desire] upon all who hated me. Omri, king of Israel -- he oppressed Moab many days, because Chemosh was angry with his land.
And his son succeeded him, and he also said I will oppress Moab. In my day he spoke according to this word, but I saw my desire upon him and upon his house, and Israel utterly perished forever.
Now Omri had possessed all the land of Medeba and dwelt in it his days and half the days of his son, forty years, but Chemosh restored it in my day. And I built Baal-meon and I made in it the reservoir and I built Kiryathaim. And the men of Gad had dwelt in the land of Ataroth from of old and the king of Israel had built for himself Ataroth. And I foutht against the city and took it, and I slew all the people of the city, a sight pleasing to Chemosh and to Moab.
And I brought back from there the altar-hearth of Duda and I dragged it before Chemosh in Kiryoth. And I caused to dwell in it the men of Sharon and the men of Meharoth (?).
And Chemosh said to me: "Go take Nebo against Israel"; and I went by night and fought against it from break of dawn till noon, and I took it and slew all, seven thousand men, boys (?), and women, and girls, for I had devoted it to Ashtar-Chemosh.
And I took from there the altar-hearths of Yahweh, and I dragged them before Chemosh. And the king of Israel built Jabaz and dwelt in it while he fought with me and Chemosh drove him out from before me. And I took from Moab two hundred men, all its chiefs, and I led them against Jahaz and took it to add unto Dibon.
And I built Qarhar (?), the wall of the forests and the wall of the hill; and I built its gates and I built its towers, and I built the kings house, and I made the sluices (?) for the reservoir of water in the midst of the city.
And there was no cistern in the midst of the city, in Qarhar (?); and I said to all the people: "Make you each a cistern in his house;" and I cut the cuttings for Qarhar (?) with the help of the prisoners of Israel. I built Aroer and I made the highway by the Arnon. And I built Beth-bamoth, for it had been destroyed. And I built Bezer, for it was in ruins....(Chi) of Dibon were fifty, for all Dibon was obedient. And I ruled. And I ruled a hundred....in the cities which I had added to the land. And I built [Mede]ba and Beth-diblathan. And [as for] Beth-baal-meon, there I placed sheep-raisers....sheep of the land... And [as for] Horonaim there dwelt in it....and.....Chemosh said unto me: "Go down, fight against Horonaim," and I went down and....Chemosh in my day, and from there.....and I.......

I am Mesha, son of Kemosh[-yatti], the king of Moab, the Dibonite. My father was king over Moab for thirty years, and I became king after my father.
And I made this high-place for Kemosh in Qarcho bm[...]s' because he has delivered me from all kings, and because he has made me look down on all my enemies. Omri was the king of Israel, and he oppressed Moab for many days, for Kemosh was angry with his land. And his son reigned in his place; and he also said, "I will oppress Moab!" In my days he said so. But I looked down on him and on his house, and Israel has been defeated; it has been defeated forever! And Omri took possession of the whole land of Mehdeba, and he lived there in his days and half the days of his bnh (son): forty years. But Kemosh restored it in my days.
And I built Baal Meon, and I built a water reservoir in it. And I built Qiriath-en.
And the men of Gad lived in the land of Atarot from ancient times; and the king of Israel built Atarot for himself, and I fought against the city and captured it. And I killed all the people of the city as a ryt (satiation-offering?) for Kemosh and for Moab. And I brought back 'r'l dwdh from there; and I brought it before the face of Kemosh in the Qiriath, and I made the men of Sharon live there, as well as the men of Maharit. And Kemosh said to me, "Go, take Nebo from Israel." And I went in the night and fought against it from the daybreak until midday, and I took it and I killed the whole population: seven thousand male subjects and aliens, and female subjects, aliens, and servant girls. For I had put it to hrm (the ban) for Ashtar Kemosh. And from there I took 'r'ly (or 't kly, "vessels") of YHWH and I presented them before the face of Kemosh.
And the king of Israel had built Yahaz, and he stayed there throughout his campaign against me; and Kemosh drove him away before my face. And I took two hundred men of Moab, all its division, and I led it up to Yahaz. And I have taken it in order to add it to Dibon.
I have built Qarcho, the wall of the woods and the wall of the citadel; and I have built its gates; and I have built its towers; and I have built the house of the king; and I have made the double reservoir for the spring in the innermost part of the city. Now the innermost part of the city had no cistern, in Qarcho, and I said to all the people, "Each one of you shall make a cistern in his house." And I cut the moat for Qarcho by using Israelite prisoners.
I have built Aroer, and I constructed the military road in Arnon. I have built Beth-Bamot, for it had been destroyed. I have built Bezer, for it lay in ruins. And the men of Dibon stood in battle formation, for all Dibon were in subjection. And I am the king over the hundreds in the towns which I have added to the land. And I have built [the house of Mehde]ba and the house of Diblat-en and the house of Baal-Meon, and I brought there [...]s'n ("flocks") of the land.
And in Horon-en, there lived bt[d]wd[h?] (the House of David/Daudoh?) . . . Kemosh said to me, "Go down, fight against Horon-en!" I went down . . . and Kemosh [dwelt] there in my days . . .
