Did we on the defection of the Samians record our vote against you, when the rest of the Peloponnesian powers were equally divided on the question whether they should assist them? No, we told them to their face that every power has a right to punish its own allies.
Guk samoarrek bertan behera utzi zintuztetenean ere ez genuen zuen kontra eman botoa, nahiz eta gainerako peloponesoarrek banatuta egon defenditu behar ziren ala ez erabaki orduan, baizik garbi azaldu genuen norberak bere kabuz zigortu behar zituela bere aliatuak.
