What Would Jesus Think
Wanting to showcase your devotion to Jesus? Nothing works better than a pictorial with a caption written in the holy language...

Unless it's written backwards, that is.
This guy wanted a fancy "Christ my Lord and Savior" to complement his elaborate artwork. What he actually got was a rather more modest "Jesus the Messiah". What's worse - the message is spelled backwards.
Admittedly, "Jesus the Messiah" sound much better in Hebrew than the other option, and it's correctly written like this:

You don't have to get is tattooed, either. How about a nice piece of jewelry instead? Not permanent - that's a big advantage!
On the other hand if you're truly set on using "Jesus my Lord and Savior" (though not Christ, it absolutely doesn't work!), then you'll need the following translation:
