every people under heaven

The Greek in Acts 2:5 that is translated “every people (or: “nation”) under heaven” or similar in English is translated as “many other groups of towns” in Isthmus Mixe, “all the villages in the world” in San Mateo Del Mar Huave, “all over the world where there are people” in Central Pame, and “every tribe there is in the world” in Chuj. (Source: Viola Waterhouse in Notes on Translation August 1966, p. 86ff.)
