=I can translate this, but I don't understand why. Would this be better?
=L: wanI'vammo' *meSI'na*vamDaq Quchqu'bogh SoSloDnI'Daj'e' ghaj
Because of this he has an happy uncle in Messina? This seems to me to imply
the wrong things.

Hm. I don't think it essential.
=>L: va, be'nI'puq, qaH *be'neDIq* DanaDHa'
=>'a Durap ghaH pawDI' 'e' jIHonbe'
=What is "va" and "'a"?
TKD, p. 178 and p.55 resp. "va" is how I translate "I' faith" and "Marry".
=Durap -> Dughom?
No. "be meet with you" means "get even with you". He will be the same as you
(in that he'll do some naDHa'-ing to *you*).
