A quote.
Does anyone know the translation for:

The exile will be protected. I fight for order, Holy Lord.

After much thought, and a great dream, I've decided on my family motto. "To hold decency at bay" In this case decency is the forces
of puritanism, the blue noses, and political correctness. I've tried many of the machine translation websites but they just don't get it. It seems that the hardest part is the sense of holding something at bay. Could some kind human provide a translation with the right spirit?
Thanks,
TJ

thank you now i can finish my tattoo


You're welcome, rosendaletina.

PLEASE NOTE:
I am not a professional Latin scholar, just a guy who learned a bit of it
years ago and does this for fun. Before committing to a tattoo, please
run this by someone else for review.

Glad to hear you've gotten it together!

That seems to be a popular quote; here's a translation.

You're welcome.

Here's one I like that seems to apply:
Ad astra per aspera (To the stars through difficulties)

Translating English into Latin
Hi
I'm new to this so I hope I get it right.

My parents are both very ill and my father is a lover of Latin. I want to be able to say in Latin to them:

We are praying for you

We are praying for you both

I am praying for you

I am praying for you both

Thank you very much for any assistance you can provide,
Gene

NOTE: in Latin there is a different form for "you" depending on whether it
is singular or plural. From the context I assume you want the plural
(mother and father). If you want the singular, just substitute the
word "tibi" for the word "vobis".

We are praying for you
Oramus pro vobis.

We are praying for you both
Oramus pro vobis ambobus.

I am praying for you
Oro pro vobis.

I am praying for you both
Oro pro vobis ambobus.

(I will add my prayer for your mother and father as well.)

Looking for help with a short phrase
Hi.

I would like to translate the following into Latin:

"I cannot handle it." This is meant in the sense that "I cannot take care of it," not "Calgon, take me away."

Thanks

Hi, I'm looking for a translatin of "perfection is not enough", I've heard that Silentium est non Satis is close, but not knowing any Latin myself, any dictionaries I have translate silentium into silecne not perfection. Thanks for the help.

Perfectio non satis
(You can add "est", but it isn't necessary)
