I need help in translating "God's Warrior" into Irish-Gaelic. Can anyone help?

Doesn't "curadh" mean "champion" rather than "warrior" a Aonghuis.
I would think "Gaiscíoch Dé" more likely .Anyone?

Ón bhfoclóir beag:
curadh [ainmfhocal firinscneach den chéad díochlaonadh]
gaiscíoch, laoch; an té a bhfuil gach iomaitheoir eile cloíte aige i gcluiche nó i mbabhta spóirt.
gaiscíoch [ainmfhocal firinscneach den chéad díochlaonadh]
fear gaisce, laoch, curadh.

So I guess it depends on the particular context.
I took "God's Warrior" as being singular, in which case I think curadh fits best.

Gaiscíoch would be one of many
