Lord
In Romans 10:9 the confession ‘Jesus is Lord’ = Gusti Yesus punika Gustinipun. Gusti is also the ordinary address for a feudal lord, palace master, or member of the Javanese aristocracy, so every occurrence needs context establishing Christ’s exclusive, supreme Lordship, not deference language borrowed from the keraton social hierarchy.
