23 Good success be to the Romans, and to the nation of the Jews, by sea and by land for ever: the sword also and the enemy be far from them.
24 But if war arise for Rome first, or any of their confederates in all their dominion,
25 the nation of the Jews shall help them as confederates, as the occasion shall prescribe to them, with all their heart:
26 and to them that make war upon them they shall not give, neither supply, food, arms, money, or ships, as it has seemed good to Rome, and they shall keep their ordinances without taking anything therefore.
27 In the same manner, moreover, if war come first upon the nation of the Jews, the Romans shall help them as confederates with all their soul, as the occasion shall prescribe to them:
28 and to them that are confederates with their foes there shall not be given food, arms, money, or ships, as it has seemed good to Rome; and they shall keep these ordinances, and that without deceit.
29 According to these words have the Romans made a covenant thus with the people of the Jews.
