These are a few typical liturgical phrases that I translated for those of you who would like to add some German into your workings with heath culture. I'm a German nativ speaker.

Terms to fill in the blanks:

"This Cup" - "This Well" - "This Sacred Place / Nemeton"
"Dieser Kelch" – "Diese Quelle" – "Dieser heilige Platz / Nemeton"
"May the Gods and ancestors bless___"
"Mögen die Götter und Ahnen [diesen heiligen Platz, diese Quelle, diesen Kelch, John Doe] segnen"
"This water"

"This is the waters of life"
"Das ist das Wasser des Lebens"
"Behold the waters of life"
"Siehe, das Wasser des Lebens"
"Gods, give us the Waters!"
"Götter, gebt uns das Wasser!"
Annotiation: The waters is plural. It would be highly unusual to say plural waters in German. When in literature you come upon the term "waters of life" it is usually translated into a singular "water of life".
If you want to translate it plure, you would say everywhere where you have a "das Wasser" simply "die Wasser".

"Der Schutz der Götter sei auf ___" (diesem Mann, dieser Frau, dieses Kind, diesem Ort, diesem Objekt)
"This man" - "This woman" - "This child"
"Dieser Mann" – "Diese Frau" – "Dieses Kind"
"Gods be with you" - "And also with you"
"Die Götter seien mit euch" – "und mit dir" (singular) - "und mit euch" (plural)
