Estamos diciendo esto para mantenerlos vivos, no queremos que sean un objetivo.
We're saying this to keep them alive; we don't want them to be a target.

As head of security, it is my duty to keep them alive.
— Avatar (2009)
Tenía que mantenerlos a salvo.
I had to keep them safe.
El tiempo lo dirá mientras tanto, debemos mantenerlos unidos.
Time will tell, in the meantime, we must keep them together.
