[Tlhingan-hol] Acts Chapter 2 in Klingon (vagh 'ay' wej)

[Rohan Fenwick]

ghItlhpu' Qov, jatlh:
> 21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call
> on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
> 'ej qaS wanI'vam: Qun pong jachbogh nuv'e' toDlu'.
> And this event occurs: the person who calls out the name 
> of god will be rescued.

jIchuppu' jIH, jIjatlh:
> Might I alternately suggest {choq} "preserve, save"?

jang je Voragh, jatlh:
> Two more examples of {choq} "preserve, save":
>   wo' ngay' bochoqmeH bowIvlu'pu'! 
>   You have been chosen to preserve the glory of the Empire! (MKE)
> 
>   quvlIj vIchoq 
>   Your honor will be saved (PB)

FYI, Voragh, the specific citation here is paq'yav 6:13.

> But as a non-Christian I have to ask:  Saved from what specifically (in this passage)?

Upon reading it in context (as an agnostic I'm not intimately familiar with the Bible) I believe it refers to salvation from the damnation that's to be meted out to the wicked and sinful at the End of Days.
