So if they are ungrateful for your favors to them, those favors are indeed
If they deny your favors among them, then
Debts that slender spears have exacted.
They are debts that spears with their blades will settle.

And if they foolishly meet them with denial,
And if in ignorance they meet them with rejection,
Then their brown spears and sword blades have indeed acknowledged them.
Their night fires and tents have made them known.

They came to you; then the time came—its watchers, striking edges [wording unclear].
They came to you while their abodes were dwellings
Out of shame; and it resisted those leveling it—[final word unclear].
Of modesty, though their tents disobeyed the rain.
