  • Newari: “I regret a lot for making Saul king, because he has gone far from me, and he has not obeyed my commands. Samuel was at a loss to know what to say [lit. "what to say what to say" happened to Samuel], and weeping all night he prayed to the LORD.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “‘I regret/am-sorry that I made Saul king, because he has-turned-away from me and he has- not -followed/obeyed my commands.’ When Samuel heard this, he (was) very troubled/disturbed, so he prayed to the LORD the whole/entire night.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
