- Kupsabiny: “On top of that they shall place the things that are used there at the altar, the pans for embers, forks, big spoons and basins and cover (them) with hippo skin. Then they are to put into the rings of that altar poles for carrying it.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Newari: “Then, having put all the implements used in doing the service of the altar on top of it — the fire pot, the long meat forks, the shovel for scooping out ashes, the bowl for sprinkling blood — it all must be covered with dolphin skin leather and then the carrying poles must be put in place.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “And then they are to be placed on the altar all the things/(used-for-serving) of-this: things-to-put the live-coal, the big forks for meat, the shovels, and the bowls. They will-cover this with good kind of leather and then they will-insert the poles which are-used-for-carrying this.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “Then they must spread on top of the cloth all the items used at the altar—the pans for carrying the hot coals, the meat forks, the shovels, the bowls for containing the blood to sprinkle on the people, and all the other containers. Then they must spread over all those things a nice covering made from the skins of goats. Then they must insert into the rings at the sides of the altar the poles for carrying it.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
