Question
Can the phrase "And God so loved the World" be translated into Pro Dues sic diligo terrarum? Thank you!
Aren Sharp
Hello Aren,
Sorry, but “Pro Dues sic diligo terrarum” is absolutely wrong.
The correct translation for “And God so loved the World" (John 3:16) is :
"Sic enim dilexit Deus mundum"
Please note that :
SIC ENIM = and …so
DILEXIT= loved
DEUS=God
MUNDUM=the world
Best regards
Maria
