I�m translating a letter but I've got many doubts about what would be the best option in Spanish for this "The more you know in your heart the more you will become like him"

I woud say Cuanto m�s conozcas de �l en tu coraz�n, actuaras m�s como �l"

However, I�m not sure.

Thanks in advance

Hullo Joulin,
I would translate it in this way "Cuanto mas sepas de �l en tu coraz�n�, tanto mas querras ser como �l."
Hope it be helpful.

"The more you know in your heart the more you will become like him"

Cuanto m�s sepas en tu coraz�n, m�s te parecer�s a �l.

Porque no dice en ingl�s "the more you know about him"... y adem�s tampoco dice que vos querr�s ser como �l, si no que "you�ll become like him" te guste o no...

qu� opina el resto?

Hi joulin,

I think I had replied to this thread before but I don't find my post.
Anyway, here goes my version...

Mientras m�s seas capaz de sentir como El, m�s cerca de El estar�s.

You had previously told me Him refers to God. In Spanish it is not common to say that "te parecer�s a El (Dios)", it is more common to say "estar�s cerca de El" eventhough the English is completely different.
What do you think?
