The phrase 'Fortitudo et Spes' is made up of words from the ancient, classical Latin. It's the motto of St. Joseph's College, Standish, Maine [www.sjcme.edu], as well as the name of the college newspaper [http://www.sjcme.edu/student-life/FortitudoetSpes] The College's translation of the motto into English is the following: Courage and Hope.

The phrase also is the motto of the Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council [www.stockton.gov.uk], in the northeastern English counties of Durham and northern Yorkshire. The Council's official translation of the motto into English is as follows: Endurance and Hope.

Is 'Dominus deus fortitudo mea et salvator meus' translated into English as 'The Lord God is your strength and your salvation'?

No, 'The Lord God is your strength and your salvation' isn't the English equivalent of 'Dominus deus fortitudo mea et salvator meus'. Instead, the equivalent is The Lord God is my strength and my salvation. In the word by word translation, the noun 'dominus' means 'Lord'. The noun 'deus' means 'God'. The noun 'fortitudo' means 'strength, courage, bravery'. The possessive adjectives 'mea' and 'meus' mean 'my'. The conjunction 'et' means 'and'. The noun 'salvator' means 'salvation'.
