Romanian to English Art/Literary Religion
Cel ce ține cu adevărat la voi vă va respecta și vă va aștepta până în clipa când amândoi, îmbrăcați ca fii unui Domn și Împărat veți intra în casa Lui cerând binecuvântarea unirii voastre.

îmbrăcaţi în lumina cerului
îmbrăcat în duhul sfânt
îmbrăcaţi cu putere ... etc, etc , mă întreb dacă îmbrăcat mai poate avea alt sens decât dressed ...

fii - nu cred că pot să las simplu sons - we are the sons and daughters of our God, şi aici se referă exact la femeie și bărbat

Florin Ah, da, aşa e.
Lara Barnett Feb 25, 2014:
"One lord and king" We do not say in English "One lord and king". "One" is redundant and unnecessary here and sounds non-native.
Florin Ular Feb 25, 2014:
Mă refeream la soluția introdusă în glosarul Kudoz, unde ar trebui modificat „fii” din textul sursă.
crocox Feb 25, 2014:
Florin Eu am corectat greşelile în comentariul făcut la cele spuse de Lara. Corect este: fiii Unuia Domn şi Împărat.
Florin Ular Feb 25, 2014:
fiii N-ar strica o corectură: este „ca fiii unui Domn”, nu „ca fii unui Domn”.

I should have written 'One' as in:
"Believe thou In One Lord Jesus Christ, the Only-Begotten Son of God. For we say "One Lord Jesus Christ," that His Sonship may be "Only-begotten:" "

Mulţumesc!
neutral Lara Barnett : "One" is redundant here in the English. This also makes the Lord seem like two people.

Thank you!/ Jesus is called Lord and King. In Romanian orthodox church we use "Unuia" as "one and only". In fact the correct version of the source text should be "fiii Unuia Domn şi Împărat..."
agree Angela Öhrman : sons of a Lord and King

clothed as the children of the Lord your God

I think that all that is necessary here is "children", as used in this quote from Deuteronomy 14:1:

"Deuteronomy 14:1 Translations -
King James Version (KJV)
Ye are the children of the LORD your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead."
http://www.godvine.com/bible/deuteronomy/14-1

With regard to "Domn și Împărat", I believe that this is describing one and the same thing - God who is also a lord/emperor of life. Therefore the commonly used expression, "the Lord your God" seems relevant here.

"13 Tear your hearts, not just your clothes, and return to the LORD YOUR GOD. For He is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger, rich in faithful love, and He relents from sending disaster. "

Example sentence:

"2 I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery."

neutral Annamaria Amik : As the man and the woman are crowned king and queen in the Orthodox marriage sacrament, I think it's important to keep "King", to express the honour they are given; otherwise the author could have simply written "unui Domn şi Dumnezeu".
