  • Kupsabiny: “or he has hit the other one with a fist so that he dies, that person is a killer and is to be killed. And the person who should kill that person who killed (somebody) is a relative to the one who was killed.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Or if [he] kills [him] by beating [him] with [his] hand, that man is a murderer. He must be killed. the avenger of blood can kill him. They can kill him as soon as [they] find him.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “or by punching, that particular man will-be-considered a murderer/criminal and he must be-killed also. The closet blood-relative of the one-who-was-killed has the right to kill the murderer/criminal. He will-kill the murderer/criminal when he sees (him).” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “or hits that person with his hand/fist and causes that person to die, if he did it because he hated that person, then you must consider that he is a murderer, and must be executed. A relative of the person who was killed must be the one who executes the murderer as soon as he finds him.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
