Subject: Help needed

Hi

I've been asked to translate some Latin into "17th century Scots": the text
as I have it is this -
Salvatore Mundi Salvanos,qui per crucem et sanguinem redem est inos.
 I think the second line may be corrupted, or there may be some late Latin I
don't recognise.
My best crack (1st draft) would be: O Warld's Salvator sauf us aa, wha throu
bluid an corse redeemit us.

17th century spelling (?): O Warldis Salvatour sauf us all, quha throuch
bluid an corse redeimit us.

any ides?
(sorry about the typographical guddle)

brian
