(I know what "infringe" means.) That text seems to say "Take care of beginners. Infringe (imperative), and while you are infringing, as a replacement, remember (imperative) this proverb: "while the warrior is dying, only the fool laughs.".".

This looks to me like an example of an imperative being used as a conditional, a construction used in English sometimes. e.g.: "Scuba dive (imperative) there, and the navy base's underwater defences will make a quick end of you", used to mean "If you scuba dive there, the navy base's underwater defences will make a quick end of you". But, is imperative-as-conditional allowed in Klingon?
