    and the clouds to pour out lots of rain.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “He says to the snow, "Go fall on the earth!"
    And to the rain of the sky He says, "Let there be much rain!"” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “He commands the snow to drop on the ground and the rain to pour/rain down heavily,” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “What supports the pillars on which the earth rests?
    When the stars that shine early in the morning sang together,
    and someone put in place the stone that causes the earth to stay in its place,
    and all the angels shouted joyfully when they saw that happening,
    who laid that cornerstone? Did you?” (Source: Translation for Translators)
