Any Escapist who has studied Latin feel like giving me a hand with a translation?

I'd like to know the Latin for "Fear None But God." Fear is being used in the imperative sense, the reader is being told to fear no one except God.

I've used Google translate on it already. It says "Nullum timeret nisi Deus." I'm not sure the proper nuance is carried through. I'd like to have it as accurate as possible.

It's for a drawing I'm doing of a Shadowrun character. She has a tattoo of a striking eagle on her shoulder with the Latin phrase below it.

Appreciated!

Latin? Can't help you there. Is this an original character? Otherwise you'd already have the phrase right?

Strange, my google translate gave me
Timor None Sed Deus.
Sounds a tad better than "Nullum Timeret nisi Deus" thought right?

Apparently, your phrase is quite popular. A quick Google search brought up:

"Neminem time praeter Deum"
And
"Neminem time nisi Deum"

Both of which seem pretty accurate.

Gotta love Latin ;)
