stake my life
以性命擔保 / 拿性命打賭
短語 `stake one's life` 意為「冒生命危險」或「以生命為賭注」,表示對某件事的真實性或重要性有極高的確信。這裡 Catelyn 說 `I would stake my life the Lannisters are involved`,是她堅信蘭尼斯特家族與謀殺案有關,願意以生命為代價來擔保這個判斷。
-Saw what, my lady? -I don't know.
But I would stake my life the Lannisters are involved.
We already have reason to suspect their loyalty to the crown.
