[evalayCap]

May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
may the sun shine warm upon your face
& the rain fall softly upon your fields
& until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of his hand/ An old Irish/Gaelic Blessing.

Kinda similar to, :the lord bless thee n keep thee;
the lord make his face to shine upon thee,&be gracious unto thee;
the lord lift up his countenance upon thee,& give thee peace.

Shalom was a blessing used with the Hebrews for both a greeting & a goodbye,sort of a Peace be with you,as a translation./I come in peace,I go in peace...
