[tlhIngan Hol] expressing "first"

[mayqel qunen'oS]

In the paq'batlh we have:

{wa'DIch Hegh moratlh} for "first, morath fell".

Suppose now we want to say "we didn't attack them first", meaning "we were
not the ones who attacked first".

Based on the paq'batlh example, would it work if we wrote {wa'DIch
DIHIvpu'be'}?
