Joking, of course! What an exceptionally noble and admirable way to begin drafting a constitution.

Translation
“Human dignity is inviolable. Article 1 of the Basic Law (GG)”
“Die Würde des Menschen ist unantastbar” is the first sentence of Article 1 of the German Basic Law (Grundgesetz, GG).

I’m guessing, the translators just looked at typical English Legalese and emulated that style (even though the German text also uses the stronger “is”). For example, the US constitution is also written with “shall be”: https://constitution.congress.gov/constitution/
Ultimately, no matter how you formulate it, constitutions do still need to be upheld by people. Both, their continued existence, but also enforcement.
