I.M. Miziyev (English version):

D. Baksan (only in Russian and highly not politcorrect, but containing a lot
of very interesting ethnographic material):
http://balkaria.narod.ru/istoria/dbaksan/glava11.htm

Unfortunately, neither Miziyev no Baksan give the complete word by word
reading - only the phrase as a whole with some examples of reading single
words.
(If you need it I could translate for you Baksan's variant of reading the
Zelencuk inscription)
