I got the idea it might be the King of the Dead speaking to Aragorn maybe
My treachery leads to your great deeds, - it was his treachery that lead to Isildur's curse and thus to Aragorn's deeds
I've broken your family, then protected you from harm. - didn't come to Isildur's help, then helped Aragorn
Because of me you safely escaped, because of me you had to. - he didn't attack the Grey Company while they walked the Paths of the Dead, but because of the Dead Aragorn took this path in the first place
My protection lasts only tonight. - only one night because the next day the Dead defeated the corsair fleet and then were released by Aragorn
