    Einem Mann von bewundernswerter Güte und Integrität, Valerius Romanus, von senatorischem (clarissimus) Rang, Aufseher unserer Stadt (curator rei publicae) [gilt diese Ehrung]. Die allerglänzendste Stadt (colonia) der Siccensier und der Venus [stiftete dieses Monument]; wegen des [von ihm] wiederhergestellten Kultbildes (simulacrum) der Göttin, das vor langer Zeit von Dieben gestohlen worden war, die die Mauer des Tempels durchbrochen hatten, haben die Venerii (Bewohner von Veneria Sicca, oder: die Kultgemeinde der Venus, s. Kommentar in LSA) ihrem Patron in treuer Liebe diese Statue aufgestellt, um die Erinnerung an ihn in alle Zukunft weiterzutragen.
