In every place where this amulet will be seen, you (the evil spirit) should not detain Eleazar the son of Esther. And if you detain him, you will be cast immediately into a burning fiery furnace (Daniel 3:6). Blessed are you our Lord, the Healer of all (people on) earth, send healing (and) cure to Eleazar. bwbryt, tbryṭ, bšt’rwt, the angels that are [appointed] over fever and shivering, cure Ele[azar] by a holy command!
