パレスチナの状況が国際連合憲章第39条における平和への脅威に該当していると判断した。決議は、すべての政府および関係当局に対し、さらなる軍事行動をやめ、自国の軍事・準軍事部隊に停戦を命じ、3日以内に調停人が決定する時点で発効させることを命じた。また、これらの命令に従わない場合は、憲章第39条における平和の破壊が存在することを示し、直ちに検討する必要があると宣言した。
さらに決議は、特別な必要性から、エルサレムでの即時かつ無条件の停戦を翌日に行うことを命じた。決議は、国際連合調停官(Mediator)に対し、エルサレムの非武装化と安全なアクセスを確保するための努力を継続し、理事会が設定した以前の休戦協定の違反容疑を調査するよう指示し、そのために国連事務総長に対し、任務遂行に必要なスタッフ、資金、施設を提供するよう要請した。
決議は賛成7票で可決された。一方でシリアは決議に反対票を投じ、アルゼンチン、ウクライナ・ソビエト社会共和国 、ソビエト連邦は投票を棄権した。

The Security Council, Taking into consideration that the Provisional Government of Israel has indicated its acceptance in principle of a prolongation of the truce in Palestine ; that the States members of the Arab League have rejected successive appeals of the United Nations Mediator, and of the Security Council in its resolution 53 (1948) of 7 July 1948, for the prolongation of the truce in Palestine ; and that there has consequently developed a renewal of hostilities in Palestine,  1. Determines that the situation in Palestine constitutes a threat to the peace within the meaning of Article 39 of the Charter of the United Nations ; 2. Orders the Governments and authorities concerned, pursuant to Article 40 of the Charter, to desist from further military action and to this end to issue cease-fire orders to their military and paramilitary forces, to take effect at a time to be determined by the Mediator, but in any event not later than three days from the date of the adoption of this resolution ; 3. Declares that failure by any of the Governments or authorities concerned to comply with the preceding paragraph of this resolution would demonstrate the existence of a breach of the peace within the meaning of Article 39 of the Charter requiring immediate consideration by the Security Council with a view to such further action under Chapter VII of the Charter as may be decided upon by the Council ; 4. Calls upon all Governments and authorities concerned to continue to co-operate with the Mediator with a view to the maintenance of peace in Palestine in conformity with resolution 50 (1948) adopted by the Security Council on 29 May 1948 ;  5.

Instructs the Mediator to continue his efforts to bring about the demilitarization of the City of Jerusalem, without prejudice to the future political status of Jerusalem, and to assure the protection of and access to the Holy Places, religious buildings and sites in Palestine ; 7. Instructs the Mediator to supervise the observance of the truce and to establish procedures for examining alleged breaches of the truce since 11 June 1948, authorizes him to deal with breaches so far as it is within his capacity to do so by appropriate local action, and requests him to keep the Security Council currently informed concerning the operation of the truce and when necessary to take appropriate action ; 8. Decides that, subject to further decision by the Security Council or the General Assembly, the truce shall remain in force, in accordance with the present resolution and with resolution 50 (1948) of 29 May 1948, until a peaceful adjustment of the future situation of Palestine is reached ;  9. Reiterates the appeal to the parties contained in  the last paragraph of its resolution 49 (1948) of 22 May 1948 and urges upon the parties that they
continue conversations with the Mediator in a spirit of conciliation and mutual concession in order that all points under dispute may be settled peacefully ;  10. Requests the Secretary-General to provide the Mediator with the necessary staff and facilities to assist in carrying out the functions assigned to him under General Assembly resolution 186 (S-2) of 14 May 1948 and under this resolution ; 11.
