Translation by Kunthea Chhom

I
On the first [day] of [the month of] Māgha of the year totally marked by [3] fires-[6] flavours-[5] arrows (563) [in the era created] by King Śaka, ... at that time this Tribhuvanavarada was installed there along with Śrī Viṣṇu.
II
What (yat) is given (dattaṁ) to the ascetics and others (śramanādibhyaḥ), that wealth (tad dhanaṁ), it (tat) is not to be taken away (ahāryyaṁ) even (api) by king (nr̥peṇa), let alone (kiṁ punas) by [his] sons and relatives (suta-vāndhavaiḥ).
III
The obstructer of [what is] cooked (pākabhedaḥ), the destroyer of [what is] created (kr̥taghnaś) and the robber of land, these three (te trayaḥ) do not return (na nivarttante) from hell (narakāt) as long as (yāvat) the moon and the sun (soma-divākaraḥ) [exist].
IV
He who (yaḥ) destroys (bhedanaṁ karoti) the satras (satrānāṁ) which had been conducted/ had been occurring before (prāk-pravr̥ttānāṁ), is a sinner (pāpa-kr̥t), very sinful (pāpataraḥ), [and] is remembered (smr̥taḥ) as (iti) destructor of cooked food (pāka-bheda).
V
He who (yaḥ) is son (sutaḥ) of the two (dvābhyām), Ācārya Viṣṇudatta (ācāryya-viṣṇudattasya) and Satyavatī (satyavattyāḥ), called Dharmadatta (dharmmadattāhvayaḥ), by him (tena) this (ayaṁ) [image of] Hari (hariḥ) was installed (sthāpyate).
VI
He who (yaḥ) offers (dattā) with devotion (bhaktyā) the whole of male and female servants and wealth (samyak-dāsa-dāsī-dhanāni) as well as (ca) paddy field, parks and cattle (kṣetrārāma-paśūn) to Viṣṇu (viṣṇave) goes (yāti) to heaven (svarggam) together with his kinsmen (savāndhavaiḥ).
VII
He whoever (yaḥ kaś cit) takes away (haret) his ? wealth (yad-dravyam), flower etc. (puṣpādi), of Śrī Govinda (śrīgovindasya) goes (saḥ yātu) the severe [hell] Raurava (tīvraṁ rauravam) with all (sarvvaiḥ) [his] race and progeny (prakula-santānaiḥ).

(7) Lord Śrī Govindasvāmī. Ācārya Dharmadatta arranged wealth of other Ācārya to donate as foundation.
