What is an appropriate salutation when leaving a shiva call? I can only read hebrew but can't speak it. What can I say in English?

"HaMakom yenacheim etchem betoch sha'ar aveiliei Tzion v'Yerushalayim"
May Hashem comfort you among those who mourn for Zion and Jerusalem.

OP, why not just say the sentence that everyone says when they leave a house of mourning, but in english?
