  • Hiligaynon: “And this is still what he commanded us: ‘Do not build up houses or farm or plant grapes; you must- not -own any of these things. It is necessary that you only live in tents. And if you will-obey this, you will-live long in any land where you will-live.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
