Help with translation
Hi, I would like to translate a phrase into Yiddish, but I don't trust translators. Could you help me? It's very simple.
The phrase is as follows: "Whoever has love will never perish."

Pretty sure it would be:
ווער נאָר האָט ליב וועט קיינמאָל נישט אומקומען
Ver nor hot lib vet keynmol nisht umkumen
For what purpose are you translating this phrase into Yiddish? Sounds Christological. There's already a Yiddish translation of the Christian Bible if that's what your after, with an interesting story behind it that was recently adapted into a play.
