οὐκ ἔστι λέουσι καὶ ἀνδράσιν ὅρκια πιστά → there are no pacts between lions and men, between lions and men there are no oaths of faith, there can be no covenants between men and lions

Greek Monolingual

κρῆθμον, τὸ (Α)
άγριο βοτάνι που απαντά σε πετρώδεις και παραθαλάσσιους τόπους.
[ΕΤΥΜΟΛ. Πρόκειται πιθ. για δάνεια λέξη, αβέβαιης ετυμολ. που ίσως εμφανίζει επίθημα -μον (πρβλ. δίκτα-μον, κάρδα-μον)].
