peace be with you

Tranquility upon you

Peace be with you is a blessing or greeting wishing someone well-being and tranquility.

The phrase has ancient religious roots—it translates the Hebrew *shalom aleichem* and Arabic *as-salamu alaykum*, and appears throughout Christian liturgy as a formal exchange between clergy and congregation.

Outside religious contexts, it serves as a warm farewell or benediction: Go in peace, and peace be with you.
