"I will not disgrace my sacred arms Nor desert my comrade, wherever I am stationed. I will fight for things sacred And things profane. And both alone and with all to help me. I will transmit my fatherland not diminished But greater and better than before. I will obey the ruling magistrates Who rule reasonably And I will observe the established laws And whatever laws in the future May be reasonably established. any person seek to overturn the laws, Both alone and with all to help me, I will oppose him. I will honor the religion of my fathers. call to witness the Gods … The borders of my fatherland, The wheat, the barley, the vines, And the trees of the olive and the fig."
