I am the Cubmaster for a large pack and have introduced a fair number of
Klingon into that group. For instance, I put a saying from TKW or PK at the
bottom of the program for pack meetings. I also interject with Klingon
every once and a while. Here is my interpretation of the Scout Promise:
On my honor, I promise to to my best, to do my duty to God and my country,
to obey the Scout Law, to help other people at all times, to keep myself
physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight.
joH'a'wI'vaD woQwIjvaD je Qu'wIj vIQorghqu'taH 'ej
<Scout> chut vIlobtaH 'ej
reH ghotpu' vIQaH 'ej
jIHoStaH 'ej
yabwIj vIQongHa'moHtaH 'ej
batlh jIvangtaH
'e' vIlay'qu'
Line by line:
joH'a'wI'vaD woQwIjvaD je Qu'wIj vIQorghqu'taH 'ej
I will continue to take care of my duty to my God and my country
<Scout> chut vIlobtaH 'ej
I will obey the Scout Law
reH ghotpu' vIQaH 'ej
I will help people always
jIHoStaH 'ej
I will continue to be strong
yabwIj vIQongHa'moHtaH 'ej
I will keep my mind awake
batlh jIvangtaH
I will continue to act with honor
'e' vIlay'qu'
this I promise
I know that I have a problem at the end. I want the 'e' to cover everything
above. I don't think that I accomplished that.
