“A heap of witness:
The angels and the mortals
seized the Holy Ark.
The angels glorified the mortals
and the Holy Ark was returned.
Behold, it is he, the learned rabbi, the Tzadik, the offspring of worthy men,
our teacher Binyamin
among the gaon of Avraham Tsvi
Eizenstadt Ajzensztadt Aizensztadt
In the next world, the gates of repentance, a Tsadik of blessed memory.
He ministered in holiness (for) 52 years; he was the leader of the beit din of Otian
and the burden of Binyamin was great.
He was summoned into the dwelling up above [unclear].
On Monday, 13th Shevat year 5680.
May his soul be bound in the bond of everlasting life.”
