Latin
Was Simeon, the son of Jochanan the priest.
In whose time the House was renovated,
And in whose days the Temple was fortified;
In whose days the wall was built,
(Having( turrets for protection like a king’s palace;
In whose time a reservoir was dug,
A water-cisternlike the sea in its abundance.
