    and if not, I shall abandon you completely
    for this city of yours to became a deserted ruin!’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “This is a warning to you (sing.), Jerusalem, and if you (sing.) still will- not -listen, I will- surely -turn-away from you (sing.), and I will-make your (sing.) land desolate, that no one will-dwell there.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
