Symbols, one of the three forms of figurative language, play a crucial role in human life as they expand and deepen knowledge while igniting the imagination. Given their significance, symbols find extensive employment throughout the Christian Scriptures, known as the Bible, the most widely translated book globally. This study aimed to identify the various types of symbols, ideologies, and strategies employed in translating religious verbal symbols from English as the source language into Balinese, the target language. The data utilized for this study is sourced from Jay Greens Literal Translation as the source language and Cakepan Suci as the target language. This study employed a textual analysis approach, examining words and phrases carrying symbolic meanings while drawing upon translation theory concerning ideology and translation strategies. The analysis of ideological aspects draws upon the theoretical perspectives presented by Bassnett, Lefevere, Nord, Yan, and Venuti. Additionally, in terms of translation strategy, symbols were analyzed according to the taxonomy formulated from the theory of translation procedures proposed by Newmark and Molina, and Albir by utilizing Vinay and Dalbernets line of thought. The findings of this investigation reveal that the rendition of religious verbal symbols from the source language to Balinese, the target language, predominantly employs oblique/free translation techniques. This finding suggests that the translators adopted ideology aligns with the concept of domestication.
