The english was:
"My commitment to this course of action is not emotional."
BTW, this is also only in the subtitles.
More details from qepHom 2017, page 13:

MO: For "logic," use the verb {meq}. It's a verb that means, among other
things, "think logically." I think Klingons would use a verb when
talking about types of thinking rather than a noun. For "emotions," you
can use the verb {tIw}. This means "react emotionally, behave emotionally."
LLL: Can {tIw} take an object? As with meaning of "feeling emotions",
being one's own, or someone else emotions?
MO: No. I don't think it can take an object. You'd probably say
something like: {cheghDI' bangwI' jItIw.}
