- Newari: “We also saw the Nephilim there. (The Anakiː have come from the Nephilim.) We seemed like locusts in our eyes in their presence. In their eyes we also appeared like that."” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “We even saw giants, the descendants of Anak. We just felt-like/seemed-like grasshoppers when- we (excl.) -looked-at ourselves compared to them, and that is how they looked at us (excl.).’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “We even saw the descendants of Nephili there. The descendants of Anak whom we saw there are descended from the giant Nephili people. When we saw them, we felt as small as grasshoppers , and they thought that we looked like grasshoppers too!’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
