Translation Suggestions:
- The literal term is, "the Holy" (with "One" being implied.) Many languages (like English) will translate this with the implied noun included (such as "One" or "God").
- This term could also be translated as, "God, who is holy" or "the Set Apart One."
- The phrase, "the Holy One of Israel" could be translated as, "the Holy God whom Israel worships" or "Holy One who rules Israel."
- It is best to translate this term using the same word or phrase that is used to translate "holy."
