Gowran's blessing



In a recent episode of DS 9, Sisko and some of the crew smuggle themselves into
a batlh ceremony. When Gowran gives each recipient their new badge, he has a
short
speech that he snarls:

  "Glory to you and your house"

How would we translate that into tlhingan? I found only "home" in the
dictionary,
which is not quite the same meaning. "Line" might be more accurate here, as
in descent of lineage... And "glory" I couldn't find at all. And, yes, I am
very new at all this!
