νῦν δ᾽ ἔμπης γὰρ κῆρες ἐφεστᾶσιν θανάτοιο
μυρίαι, ἃς οὐκ ἔστι φυγεῖν βροτὸν οὐδ᾽ ὑπαλύξαι,
ἴομεν ἠέ τῳ εὖχος ὀρέξομεν ἠέ τις ἡμῖν. (12-326~328)
今は、いずれにせよ死の定めが立ち迫っている
数限りない死が、人間にとってそれを避けることも逃げることもなしえない
行こうではないか、誉れを我々が誰かに与えるのか、誰かが我々に与えるのか
(さあれ死滅の運命は無數、われを取り圍む、
いかなる者も是を避け、是を逃るを得べからず。
さはいざ行かむ、光榮を他に與ふるもわれ取るも。)

dunno english :p

*edit*
found the english version
"I should neither press forward myself nor bid you do so, but death in ten thousand shapes hangs ever over our heads, and no man can elude him; therefore let us go forward and either win glory for ourselves, or yield it to another."

It's from The Iliad Book 12:
