Sine-i 'adaya fal açtı hançerin
Rahmet üstada olsun bu mücevherin

Your dagger opened the bossom of enemy for soothsaying
May God Bless the master of this jewel (meaning the yatağan, I believe)

This is a very interesting part but there is also possibility that I'm not interpreting it correctly. Soothsaying by looking at the entrails of animals was a pagan practice, it is interesting if the inscription refers to such knowledge.
