[Statue of] Liber Pater, son of Jupiter, the offering which I had destined for the Lar of the home city of Severus, the son of Jupiter, who is my sun, my father Pudens [paid] on behalf of his son, on account of my candidature for the tribunate [at Rome] and my subsequent praetorship and the great indulgence which the two principes have conferred on us; as an offering which comprises all that I have vowed I dedicate two elephant tusks from your own Indian animals.

O Liber Pater figlio di Giove! Il voto che avevo destinato al lare patrio di Severo, lui che è di stirpe giovia e mio sole, io Pudens, padre ma per conto di mio figlio, per la sua toga candida da tribuno e per sua la futura pretura, nonché per la dimostrazione di tanta indulgenza nei nostri confronti da parte dai principi, soddisfatti tutti i voti, dedico due zanne di elefante dall'India a te sottomessa.
