easy - can someone translate "faith" for me

[meganb]

I want a tattoo of the christian fish and the hebrew word "faith" inside of it since it is the language of Jesus. Can someone help?

[Olivier]

since it is the language of Jesus

so you want Aramaic instead

I don't know about aramic, but in hebrew it's:
[emuna] אֱמוּנָה
or without nikud:אמונה

[meganbliss]

anyone know the aramic version?

*aramaic

for info, and perhaps to complicate matters, although aramaic was his first language, Jesus Christ also spoke greek and the fish symbol is derived from the ancient greek word meaning fish, whichis an acronym for jesus christ god's son saviour (in greek)

The so-called christian fish comes indeed from the (ancient) greek acronym IKHTHUS ("fish")

Iesous (Jesus)
KHristous (Christ)
THeiou (of God)
Uios (son)
Sôter (saviour)

For first christian communities were oftn greek-speaking, as was large towns (Alexandria, Caesarea, Antiochus, Edessa, etc.) on eastern part of Mediterranean see at time.

But it is very unlikeliy that the son of a carpenter, from the tiny town of Nazareth, did speak greek himself.

Hi ought to speak aramaic and hebrew for holy things. No more.
