7 mins confidence:   | seize the day and place no trust in tomorrow תפוס את הרגע ואל תאמין במחר
Explanation:
In Hebrew, one would say, literally, "seize the moment" so that's what I wrote.
[Tfos et harega ve'al ta'amin bamahar]
Note that this is written in the masculine. The femining form will be slightly different in Hebrew.

21 hrs confidence: | seize the day and place no trust in tomorrow מצה את היום במקום המחר המבטיח
Explanation:
I believe that here not a word by word translation is required but a translation of the connotation the phrase is eliciting.

התרגום מלטינית : תפוס את כל מעט היום מאשר את המחר המבטיח
Example sentence(s):- מיצוי היום טומן בחובו מיצוי האפשרויות המזדמנות בו ומיצויין מבטיח יותר מאשר לחכות למיצויין מחר
