Люди клянутся высшим, и клятва во удостоверение оканчивает всякий спор их.
For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife.
For men swear by one greater than themselves, and with them an oath given as confirmation is an end of every dispute.
For people swear by something greater than themselves, and in all their disputes an oath is final for confirmation.
People swear by someone greater than themselves, and the oath confirms what is said and puts an end to all argument.
For men indeed swear by the greater, and an oath for confirmation is for them an end of all dispute.
Now when people take an oath, they call on someone greater than themselves to hold them to it. And without any question that oath is binding.
For men indeed swear by a greater, and with them the oath is a term to all dispute, as making matters sure.
