Basque to English translations [Non-PRO]

Basque term or phrase: omnia si perdideris Famam servare memento

family motto: Aguirre

Whatsoever commodity you lose, be sure yet to preserve that jewel of a good name.

Explanation:
The phrase is Latin, not Basque.

This is a translation I could find in
Thomas Brooks' " The Mute Christian under the Smarting Rod"
(www.iclnet.org/pub/resources/text/ipb-e/epl-10/web/brooks-m...

The google.com search also gives a reference to the origin of the Aguirregabiria family.
