This is a good attempt. Unfortunately, although we can say that one noun is
another noun, in Klingon, we can't say that one verb is another verb.
However, you could rephrase the English sentence so that the verbs are used
as verbs. For example, try rephrasing it as this in Klingon:
"If you can destroy something, you can control it"
