For men swear by the greater: and in every dispute of theirs the oath is final for confirmation.

For men at all times make their oaths by what is greater; and any argument is ended by the decision of the oath.

Διοτι οι μεν ανθρωποι ομνυουσιν εις τον μεγαλητερον, και ο ορκος ειναι εις αυτους τελος πασης αντιλογιας προς βεβαιωσιν.

For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife.
