- Hiligaynon: “Yes, all who want to live in Egipto will-die in war, famine, and disease. No one among them can-be-saved or can-flee from the destruction which I will-send to them.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “That is what will happen to all you who are determined to go to Egypt and live there. Some of you will be killed by the swords of your enemies, and others of you will die from famines and from diseases. None of you will escape the disasters that I will bring on you.’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
