• Kupsabiny: “Through out that time, no one among us would remove the clothes whether me, or my relatives, or my workers/servants, or even the guards who were with us. We used to carry fighting equipment always, even whenever we went to draw water for drinking.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “Because we (excl.) keep-on guarding, I and my blood-relatives, the men, and guards no-longer changed our (plur.) clothes. And even going to the water we (excl.) carry our (excl.) weapons.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “As for me and my brothers, my servants and guards who were-following me, we (excl.) never removed our (excl.) clothes at night. Constantly also we (excl.) carried weapons.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• English: “During that time, none of us ever took off our clothes (OR, we wore our clothes all the time)—I and my relatives and my workers and the guards who were with me. And we had our weapons with us, in our hands.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
