Transcribed from the rendered page of the CC BY 4.0 composite edition (Zenodo, 2020) of Elisha Qimron, The Dead Sea Scrolls: The Hebrew Writings, vol. 3 (Jerusalem: Yad Ben-Zvi Press, 2015), p. 206. Qimron's introduction: a tiny single fragment, perhaps based on Numbers 16:21–24; Qimron's restoration differs from the one offered by the first editor. First edition: Dana Pike, DJD XXXVI, pp. 396–397.

Qimron's notes, in brief:

• Lines 2–4: compare Numbers 16:22–24, "And they said, God, God of the spirits of all flesh … and will you be angry with all the congregation? … Speak to the congregation".
