I want to show you three maduran hilts with medallions in the front of the belly where are arabic inscripition are carved in and want to ask if someone is able to read this and can translate it for me.

Thank you very much,

:eek: ... how you know that David ?? :eek:
you are right,
all mentions are roughly the same meaning ...
with few variations, without affecting the meaning

- " Give me to David "
- " Present to David "
- " Offer me to David "
