Trust in God

神を信じぜよ (kami wo shinze yo)

The Japanese phrase "kami wo shinze yo" meaning "Trust in God, Believe in God" is composed of the words %90_ (read kami) meaning "God" and

(read "shinze") a command form of the verb %90M%82%B6%82%E9 (read shinjiru) meaning "trust in, believe in". The changing of the verb ending from "shinjiru" to "shinze yo" changes the meaning from a passive "Trust in God" to the active "(We Should) Trust in God".
