Before you leave a shiva house of mourning, face the mourners (who should be sitting on low stools) and say:
May the Omnipresent comfort you among the rest of the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem
Hamakom yenakhem etekhem betokh shaar avelay tziyon viyrushalayim.
הַמָּקוֹם יְנַחֵם אֶתְכֶם בְּתוֹךְ שְׁאָר אֲבֵלֵי צִיּוֹן וִירוּשָׁלַיִם
