The Latin means “threefold deity,” or “god having three forms.”

The Greek actually appears to say παντόμορφον (pantómorphon), which I take to mean “all-formed” or something to that effect.

I believe the image is from Athanasius Kircher's Oedipus Aegyptiacus, a treatise on Egyptology, which may shine more light on the meaning of these phrases.
