Pere:

I do not consider translations as evidence, which was a real point of
contention between me and another writer on this list years ago (he would
quote translation after translation to try to make his point, and I would
reject them all). What I need is lexical and/or grammatical evidence, and
as far as I can see, that evidence is that שלום is the subject of יבוא in
this verse.
