    a community that are experts in war,
    people of another language,
    people whose words you do not understand.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “The LORD said, ‘People of Israel, I will-send men from a distant nation to attack you (plur.). This a very old/ancient nation, that their language you (plur.) can- not -understand.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Listen to this, you people of Israel:
    I will bring the army of a distant nation to attack you.
    It is a very powerful nation that has existed for a long time.
    They speak a language that you do not know
    and which you will not be able to understand.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
