Translation of the text on the sign:
Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that obtaineth understanding.
For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold
(Proverbs 3:13.14)

The Weizmann House was designed by Erich Mendelsohn, built in 1936 and renovated in 1975 by Vivian Clore Duffield in honor of her father Sir Charles Clore
for his seventieth birthday, which fell on December 26, 1974.
This house was inaugurated in May 1976 as a national residence, as a hand to Weizmann for generations, as a museum and a house for the sages.

"And she sitteth at the door of her house, on a seat in the high places of the city"
