MOLIS GAR hUPER DIKAIOU TIS APOQANEITAI
hUPER GAR TOU AGAQOU TACA TIS KAI TOLMAi APOQANEIN

(For rarely will anyone die for a righteous person,
though for a good person perhaps someone might
possibly dare to die.)

Am I understanding this correctly? The author is
saying that it would be very rare for someone to be
willing to die for a DIKAIOU/righteous person. But, 7b
suggests that someone would be 'more likely' to die
for a AGAQOU/good person. Why does this seem to say
that a person is less likely to die for a righteous
person and perhaps every so slightly but more willing
to die for a good person?
