Deo iuvante, nil nocet liver malus;
Et non iuvante, nil iuvat labor gravis;
Post tenebras spiro lucem.
Lady Jane Grey 1537-1554
(Nine days queen of England: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_Jane_Grey)
My version of this is:
If God should help, no harm shall bruise;
Without Him, we will only lose:
After the dark, I hope for light.
