תר מט

פנ'

איש ישר רך בשנים

וכזקן תם במעשיו

רוב חסדו וצדקתיו

יחד כלם [כולם] עליו ענים

בנהי וקינה ואנחה

חיים לו שבקל נאנחה

לוו אותו כל עובר

ירא ד' הובט' לקבר

מ' אורי בן חיים לפיני

נ' [נפטר] כו' אלול תנצבה

English translation of epitaph: 

 

(5)649

Here is buried

Upright and young man

As an old he was perfect in his deeds

His mercy and righteousness

All together will ? to him

In crying, lament and mourn

Life for him in the voice of mourn

Follow him, everybody who passes

Who fears God look at the grave

Mr. Uri son of Hayyim Lepini

Died 26 of Elul, may his soul be bound up in the bond of life
