disagree  Eynati: Not idiomatic in this context. Be-hesdey is incorrect Hebrew in any case. It's be-hAsdey: be-hEsdey is WRONG.

saved by god's grace
ניצל/ה בחסד האל


Explanation:
Ni'Tzal Be'Che'Sed Ha'El (M)
NiTz'la Be'Che'Sed Ha'El (F)

Ni'Tzal=Saved, masculine
NiTz'la=Saved, feminine
Be'Che'Sed=In Grace
Ha'El=(the)God

Although I will agree with my peers previous answer, and both are correct, Be'Che'sed is Grace in singular tense and Be'Chas'Dey is plural.

Happy Turkey Day! :-)

What some lack to understand is that this translation is required for a tattoo, and since we rather have a comprehensive legible translation, NOSHA will be wrong.

disagree  Eynati: wrong register here, use nosha. 'ch' for khet is unhelpful. Your comment is nasty & 100% unprofessional. If you bother to actually LOOK, rather than shoot your mouth off, you'll see PLENTY of answers I agree with. I'll continue to state my opinion!

  -> Not to sound mean..But dear Eynat, i NEVER saw even one answer you weren't argumentative about! Since BOTH Akiva and I agree and translated the same(give or take), maybe it is you who is wrong?!
