cum sacerdos virtutem deae liberis suis dat
Dear William,
that's it.
Cum: as (also temporal meaning, "when")
sacerdos: priestess (also priest)
virtutem: virtue (accusative)
deae: of the goddess (genitive)
liberis suis: to her children/sons (dative)
dat: bestows
Temporal "cum", when not imperfect or plusquamperfect, has an indicative verb.
Hope it helps.

if what you want is "bestower of virtues", that's it.
*Phew*
My previous, as Mirror pointed out, is the context.
Sorry for the confusion.
