h-hym β He-He-Yod-Mem: 5+5+10+40=60. Samekh again β the letter of support (samekh = to support). The double He suggests the two worlds (Assiah and Yetzirah) or the two breaths of the divine name YH (Yah).
Thus: "Inscribed line: these β a scribe? β of the Lord." Still vague. Assuming the cipher is intentional but unsolvable without a key, the string itself can be meditated upon as a notarikon (acronym) or tzeruf (letter permutation).
This is odd but evocative: a scribe who turns aside the sea, associated with a bitter or rebellious aspect of God. Could refer to Moses (who split the sea) but Moses is not typically called a "scribe of bitter Yah." Alternatively, might be a plural possessive: ΧΧ¨ΧΧ = "their bitterness" (from mar + -aw ), giving: "Turned aside the sea, the scribe is their bitterness" β cryptic. III. Aramaic / Syriac Possibility In Syriac, mryw could be ά‘άͺάά (Maryo) β a form of "Lord" (Mar Ya) with a suffix. h-hym might be άάάά‘ (hahaym) β "these." swpr is ά£άά¦άͺ (sopar) β "bird" (rare) or "scribe." srt could be ά£άͺά (srat) β "line," "inscription."

swpr β Samekh-Vav-Pei-Resh: 60+6+80+200=346. 346 = the gematria of rΓ§vn (Ratzon β "will") in some spellings. Also 3+4+6=13 β echad (one) or ahavah (love).
ROT13 gives feg u-ulz fjce zelj β no clear sense. h-hym β He-He-Yod-Mem: 5+5+10+40=60
This could be a reference to a lost gnostic text, a magical formula for crossing waters, or a pseudepigraphal title for a work about Moses as a bitter scribe. The double h in h-hym might indicate "the two seas" (Red Sea and Sea of Reeds, or upper and lower waters in Genesis 1).

So β still obscure. Alternatively, treating it as a simple shift cipher (ROT-N) . Trying ROT13 (common in online puzzles):
"Depart, O sea β scribe of the bitter Yah." If you provide the cipher key or language of origin , I can refine this into a definitive decoding. For now, it remains a fascinating enigma.
srt β Samekh-Resh-Tav: 60+200+400 = 660. In gematria, 660 = pr (Pei-Resh: 80+200=280) + tav (400) minus 20? Not clear. Could reduce to 6+6+0=12, the number of tribes or signs.
mryw β Mem-Resh-Yod-Vav: 40+200+10+6=256. 256 = 16Β², the number of paths in the Tree of Life (22 letters + 10 sefirot = 32, squared? No β 16 is half of 32). 2+5+6=13 again.
