The sentence should be divided in this way:

NON | EST | HIC | ALIVD | NISI | DOMVS | DEI | ET | PORTA | COELI. | GE. | ζδ

The first part is:
"Non est hic aliud nisi domus Dei et porta Coeli."

About that GE and ζδ, I don't know what they could be. I'm searching forward for them.

It's a quotation from the Genesis (Gen 28, 17), these are the words of Jacob after he had the dream of the stairway to Heaven.

So, I think, GE could be an abbreviation for "Genesis".

About ζδ, I've found this page: http://christianisrael.freevar.com/bible/strongs/H2088
It seems to be a masculine demonstrative pronoun in Biblical Hebrew (×–×”). I don't know in which way it could be linked with the meaning of the sentence.

I'll wait for Aneta's opinion.

Great job, Serena!
I'm not sure what the Greek letters do with the line, but I suppose it might be also an ancient Greek numeral (chapter number and verse number?).

The ancient greek numerals are :

α,β,γ,δ,ε,στ,ζ,η,θ is 1...9
ι,κ,λ,μ,ν,ξ,ο,π,ϟ is 10...90
ρ,σ,τ,υ,φ,χ,ψ,ω,ϡ is 100...900

for a thousand they used an '','' before the letter. So 1000 was ,α.
2000 was ,β etc.
So 1341 was ,ατμα
2080 was ,βπ
104 was ρδ etc

source

What do you think?

I thought it was a numeral, too. But it doesn't seem to fit with the chapter and paragraph of the quotation...

Dear Lene, since the last two letters don't belong to Latin, I would remove them and leave the rest text in a form as Efylove suggested:'

"Non est hic aliud nisi domus Dei et porta Coeli. Genesis".
