- Hiligaynon: “Listen! I will-strengthen you (sing.) today like a stoned-wall city or (an) iron pillar or bronze stoned-wall. None of the kings, officials, priests, or people of Juda who can-win-over against you (sing.).” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “But listen! I will cause you to be strong, like a city that has strong walls around it. You will be as strong as an iron pillar or a bronze wall. None of the kings or officials or priests will be able to defeat you.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
