שלום - כאן אנוח בשלוםShalom - kan anuax BeShalom


Explanation:
Please note:
1) The Hebrew word for peace is "Shalom" (שלום)

2) the letter "k" serves instead of the letter "kaf" (כ) - the 11th letter of the Hebrew alphabet

3) The letter x serves instead of the letter "chet" (ח), which is the 8th letter of the Hebrew alphabet and is pronounced in a simliar manner to the spanish X.

4) The double Capitalization in the word "BeShalom" (בשלום), which means "In Peace", is meant to distinguish between the letter "bet" (ב), which serves as a prefix meaning "in" and the word "shalom" itself, which means peace.
