We hope in the Lord Explanation: It seems to be a (rather ungrammatical) Latin sentence. Literally, I'd say it means "you are ours, hope in God", though it seems bizarre (and even grammatically incorrent). But since this is a simple statement expressing faith in God, you may conveniently alter it, you may say, e.g. "We believe in God", "Our hope in the Lord is strong", etc. |
