I want to get a sanskrit tattoo but I need some help translating the quote that I want. The quote is: "My Strength and Refuge is in God"

मदीय शक्ति उत आश्रय वृत् मध्ये देव

That is what I came up with using this :

Sanskrit Dictionary for Spoken Sanskrit (http://spokensanskrit.de/)

This is usually a pretty good translator. Unfortunately, I cannot translate myself, but I'm thinking about learning. :)

If it doesn't look right to you, try out the translator and see what you come up with. :)

Thank you for your help. That's going to be a long tattoo. I'm thinking of shortening it to: "My strength is in God". How would you translate that into sanskrit. Thanks.
