My comment:
Leave it in French. Same for "chevaliers" and "servants". Make sure "servants" is in italics so it's clear you're using the French term (they weren't servants!). This is talking about the French chivalric order system, so it's better to leave the terms in French.

If this is specifically about the order of Malta, "frère servant/frère donat" is "servant brother" and "chevalier" is "knight".
