Christians' greeting

Post by Liesma »

Hi, everyone!
I think, that most of members of this forum is Christians, so I would ask for little help. We, Christians from Latvia, have greeting "Lai ir slavēts Jēzus Kristus", but how it is in English? I looked in Google translator and it gave this translation: "Blessed be Jesus Christ". Is it right? I ask it for these, who know English very good.

The most common religious salutations used in everyday life in the US would be "God bless you" and "God be with your." I don't know any Latvian, so I don't know if either is the equivalent to your phrase.

"God bless you too" for the first and "And also with you" for the other.
