שנת תרעג לפק

פנ

כג סיון

איש תם וישר

והיה משמח את

הבריות מ יעקב

קאפיל ב שמוא[ל]

זל תנצבה

Here was buried [on]

23 [of] Sivan

A flawless and honest man

His home was open

To the poor all his days

Watched the doors of the

Sick to visit them

And was pleasing the people, our teacher Yaakov

Kopel son [of] Shmue[l]

Of blessed memory

may his soul be bound in the bundle of life
