Lord forgive me

I have been searching the internet for a latin quote or translation for a phrase that I want to get for a tattoo that I have been working on for about a year.

What I would like to know is what is the translation of
"Lord forgive me".

Or if anyone knows of any similiar personal religious phrases.

Thanks,

Taking reference from Matt 6:12 & Luke 23:34I would try:

Domine dimitte me

If you look for an internet bible site, you should be able to find quite a lot of suitable religious phrases. I would try starting with something like Matthew, Mark or Luke...

Some possibilities:

Miserere mei, Deus (Be merciful to me, O God).

Absolve me Deus (forgive me, O God) (the first word has three syllables).

Absolvat me Deus (may God forgive me).

Domine ne in furore tuo arguas me (Lord, condemn me not in Thy wrath; this is the beginning of the 38th Psalm).

Iynx! Great to have you collaborating again! I like very much your options, and Cinefactus' as well.

I'll just add one last one: Ignosce mihi.

But I'd go with one of Iynx's or Cinefactus' one. Ignosce mihi would be more what you would say to another Roman should you bump one in the street.
