拉丁语：Gallia est omnis dīvīsa in partēs trēs, quārum ūnam incolunt Belgae, aliam Aquītānī, tertiam, qui ipsōrum linguā Celtae, nostrā Gallī appellantur. Hī omnēs linguā, īnstitūtīs, lēgibus inter sē differunt. Gallōs ab Aquītānīs Garumna flūmen, ā Belgīs Matrona et Sēquana dīvidit.
Hōrum omnium fortissimī sunt Belgae, proptereā quod ā cultū atque hūmānitāte Prōvinciae longissimē absunt, minimēque saepe mercātōrēs ad eōs commeant, atque ea, quae ad effēminandōs animōs pertinent, important; proximīque sunt Germānīs, quī trāns Rhēnum incolunt, quibuscum continenter bellun gerunt. Quā dē causā Helvētiī quoque reliquōs Gallōs virtūte praecēdunt, quod ferē cotīdianīs proeliīs cum Germānīs contendunt, cum aut suīs fīnibus eōs prohibent, aut ipsī in eōrum fīnibus bellum gerunt.
英语：Gaul as a whole was divided into three parts, of which the Belgae inhabit one, the Aquitani inhabit another, those who in their own language are called Celts, in our language are called Gauls, inhabit the third part. All these are different by languages, customs, and laws among themselves. The Garumna river divides the Gauls from Aquantani, the Matrona and Sequana divide the Gauls from Belgae.
The strongest of all of these are the Belgae, because they are farthest away from civilization and culture of the Province, and least often merchants go to them, and least often they bring in those things which pertain to weakening their spirits, and they are nearest to the Germani, who live across the Rhine, with whom they wage war continuously. For which reasons the Helevetians also surpassed the rest of Gaul in courage, because they struggle with the Germans in battles almost everyday when either they prevent them from their territory, or they themselves wage war in their territory.
中文：整个高卢被分为三个部分，其中之一被贝尔盖人（Belgae）居住，阿基塔尼人（Aquitani）住在另一个，第三个被我们所说的高卢人占领，在他们自己的语言里他们叫自己凯尔特（Celts）人。这些人的语言，文化，和法律都彼此不同。加龙河将高卢人和阿基塔尼人分开，马恩河和塞纳河将高卢人和贝尔盖人分开。
三个部落之间最为强壮的是贝尔盖人，因为他们离普罗旺斯的人文最远。商人们也很少去到那里，所以很少有人带去那些与削弱他们精神的物品。他们离日耳曼人最近，也经常征战。两个部落之间只有一条莱茵河把两方分开。因为以上原因，赫尔维蒂人的勇气也超越了其他的高卢部落，他们基本上每天也与日耳曼人打仗。要么他们在防止日耳曼人进入到他们的领土，或者他们自己在对方的的领土征战。
这里所指的高卢就是现法国所在的地方。当时罗马帝国占领了现在的普罗旺斯，位于法国东南方向的一个地区。
最后一个自然段里所指的“削弱他们精神的物品”其实是在说因为那里的地位太远，太偏僻，根本没什么人去。所以那里没有人文，都是野蛮族。
