24 But if war is first made on Rome, or any of its allies in any of their dominions,
25 the Jewish nation will fight along with them wholeheartedly, as the occasion shall demand;
26 and to those who wage war they shall not give or provide grain, weapons, money, or ships, as seems best to Rome. They shall fulfill their obligations without receiving any recompense.
27 In the same way, if war is made first on the Jewish nation, the Romans will fight along with them willingly, as the occasion shall demand,
28 and to those who attack them there shall not be given grain, weapons, money, or ships, as seems best to Rome. They shall fulfill their obligations without deception.
29 On these terms the Romans have made an agreement with the Jewish people.
30 But if both parties hereafter agree to add or take away anything, they shall do as they choose, and whatever they shall add or take away shall be valid.
