I do not know if this website accept translation requests but here is the sentence, it is an hebrew religious concept, this is all I know about this sentence. A friend told it to me and I want to know what it means. It was in the middle of a religious discussion.
"Hutshuva Hutfila, Huzdaka mavirim (mevatlim?) et roa agzera"
To add a little bit:
This sentence (in Hebrew: ותשובה ותפלה וצדקה מעבירין את רוע הגזרה, uteshuva utefila utzedaqa ma'avirin et roa' hagezeira) is from the well-known piyyut (liturgical poem) Unetaneh Tokef, which is recited during the High Holidays. It is attributed (probably apocryphally) to a certain 11th-century rabbi, Amnon of Mainz but is probably a few centuries older than that.
The sentence from Unetaneh Tokef, which has been translated in the other answers, draws on the language of Genesis Rabba (an early midrashic compilation) 44:15, where it says:
ר' יודן בשם ר' אלעזר אמר: שלושה דברים מבטלין גזירות רעות, ואלו הם: תפלה וצדקה ותשובה.
Rabbi Yudan said in the name of R. El'azar: three things annul [mevatlin] evil decrees, and they are: prayer, charity, and repentance.
Ma'avirin, the word used in Unetaneh Tokef, is closer in meaning to "averting" or "shifting", which "mevatlin" is like "annulling" or "canceling", but I couldn't give you a good answer as to why the poet chose to use one word over the other. Hope this clarifies this beautiful sentence for you.
“teshuva (repentance) tefila (prayer) and tzedaka (charity) avert the evil decree”
Repentance, Prayer, and Charity (Mavirim =) take away (Mevatlim =) destroys the bad decree.
