原文语境

Ned replies in disbelief, "You want me to serve a boy who sits on a throne of lies? I am the Hand of the King, or at least I was. I gave my word to Robert. I swore to protect his realm, not to hand it over to usurpers." Varys signs, "Your honor is a noble thing, My Lord. But will it feed your children? Will it keep Sansa safe? Joffrey will rule with an iron fist, guided by Cersei’s paranoia. If you persist in this defiance, they will show no mercy. You will be executed, and your daughters will be at their mercy. You must swallow your pride for the sake of your family." Ned looks down in despair, "My life is not so precious to me that I would buy it with lies."

奈德难以置信地回答:“你要我去侍奉一个坐在谎言王座上的男孩?我是国王之手,至少我曾经是。我向劳勃许下承诺。我发誓要保护他的王国,而不是把它拱手让给篡位者。”瓦里斯叹了口气:“大人,你的荣誉固然高尚。但它能养活你的孩子吗?它能保证珊莎的安全吗?乔佛里将在瑟曦妄想症的引导下,实施铁腕统治。如果你坚持这种反抗,他们绝不会手下留情。你会被处决,而你的女儿们将听凭摆布。为了你的家人,你必须放下傲慢。”奈德绝望地低下头:“我的生命对我来说并没有那么珍贵,以至于我要用谎言来换取它。”
