Question
I would like the phrase "Bless me father for I have sinned" translated to Latin. I'm Catholic and have had a tatoo of a cross for quite some time. The cross, by design has space for a short phrase. Thank you very much for your time.

Answer
Hello,

here's the translation of “Bless me, father, for I have sinned”.

“Ignosce mihi, Pater, quia peccavi”.

Have a nice day.
