I can tell from my limited eductaion and Latin, and strong grasp of the english language it's referring to War and Peace(not the book, just the concepts) but I can't seem to make the rest of the words form any sensible phrase. I've found places that will translate the individual words, but when Ii combine them I can't seem to find a coheseive sentiment.... I hope someone can help me. Thanks

"If you wish to have peace you should be prepared for war."
and many more latin quotes.

The word for word translation would be as following :
"If you want peace prepare a war"
Parabellum is also the brand of a german pistol.
