I say, sayest thou, (but they are but vain words) I have counsel and strength for war: now on whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?

aut quo consilio vel fortitudine rebellare disponis ? super quem habes fiduciam, quia recessisti a me ?

μὴ ἐν βουλῇ καὶ λόγοις χειλέων παράταξις γίνεται; καὶ νῦν ἐπὶ τίνα πέποιθας ὅτι ἀπειθεῖς μοι;

I say, thy counsel and strength for the war are but vain words: now on whom dost thou trust, that thou hast rebelled against me?
