?ilinifir och Tor-... [läto resa] stenen efter Frösten, sin fader, och Vi-... efter sin
frände.

English

?ilinifir and Tor-... [let raise] the stone after Frösten, his father, and Vi-... his relative.

The four pieces of the stones were part of the sacristy wall, which was built in the 15:th century, with the inscription partially visible in 1829. Later the church was whitewashed and they were hidden until 1942 when they were put together and the stone put close to the church. The missing piece was not known in the 17:th century. The stone stands 3.50 m tall.
