English term or phrase: god my salvation
a biblical translation
jonathan jones
Elohim yeshu'ati
Explanation:
yeshu'a = salvation

hatzala = saving [someone], e.g. from drowing. Does not convey the spiritual salvation sense, for which yeshu'a is always used (e.g. [Jesus] the Saviour is Yeshu ha-Moshi'a).

Eloyim, atsalati


Explanation:
Jonathan, I am not very well versed in Biblical terminology, so I am not sure whether or not this will do and you should not rely on this 100%.
However, salvation in a general sense, moral and physical, is translated as "Atsalah" in the everyday language. And God, well we all know! :-)

disagree  Noah: I think the answerer means to say "hatzalati." Hatzala does mean help, deliverance and rescue, but, especially in modern writing, refers to physical , not spritual deliverance.odern writing

agree  Noah: I would suggest "el yeshu'ati," for the above. This is a direct quote from Isaiah 12:2, and is the opening phrase of a famous prayer among Jews sung every Saturday night at the conclusion of the Sabbath: "Hinei el yeshu'ati" rase
