Subtitles in this scene read:

I was taught to uphold right over wrong... ...in words as well as deeds.  I shall obey the Atreids if their command is just.  If not, I shall oppose them.  Call me the basest man in Greece... ...son not of Peleus, but of hell... ...if I lend myself as cover to their plots.
