- Hiligaynon: “The LORD said to me, ‘Even if Moises and Samuel were- the -ones-to-ask-for-mercy from me for these people, I will- never -pity them. So drive- them -out from my presence. Cause- them -to-leave!” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “Then Yahweh said this to me: ‘Even if Moses and Samuel could come back from their graves and and stand in front of me and plead with me for these Israeli people, I would not act mercifully toward these people. I would tell you, ‘Send them away from me. Cause them to leave me!’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
