This is the famous medieval prayer: [O] salvator mundi, qui per crucem tuum
et sanguinem pretiosum tuum nos redemptisti, salva nos... There are many
musical setting of it as well.
In the Anglican Book of Common Prayer(1662, tho the translation dates to
1549) (and presumably in Laud' s Liturgy for Scotland in 1637) it reads: "O
Saviour of the world, who by thy Cross and precious Blood hast redeemed us,
Save us, and help us,  we humbly beseech thee, O Lord."

Salvator mundi salva nos, qui per crucem et sanguinem redemisti nos.

"O saviour of the world save us, who by thy cross and blood hast redeemed
us".

Hi Brian,

>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

A google search for "qui per crucem et sanguinem" (qutation marks
included) leads to a number of sites with similar phrases:

Salvator mundi, salva nos, *qui* *per* *Crucem* *et* *Sanguinem*
tuum redemisti nos.

So the line you gave us has
*"salva nos" tun together
* left out "tuum"
* split redemisti and mixed up an i for an e (which did happen quite
frequently as the pronunciation of short e and short i was similar).

Regards,

Heiko
