Birkat Habayit Tile

Text of the Birkat Habayit(ברכת הבית), Hebrew for "Blessing for the Home", superimposed on a blue and white fractal image reminiscent of feathers or clouds. A small Star of David (Magen David) is located in the centre of the fractal and a white dove carrying a sprig of olive branch also appears. The Birkat Habayit is traditionally hung on the wall next to the front door or next to a window. It is meant to protect the occupants within. There are several variations on the text. Transliteration: Birkat habayit Bezeh haššshaˁar lo yavo tzaˁar Bezot haddirah lo tavo tzarah Bezot haddelet lo tavo bahalah Bezot hammaḥlaqah lo tavo mahloqet Bezeh hammaqom tehi b'rakhah v'shšalom Translation: Blessing for the home: Let no sadness come through this gate. Let no trouble come to this dwelling. Let no fear come through this door. Let no conflict be in this place. Let this home be filled with the blessing of joy and peace.
