• Hiligaynon: “[You (plur.)] do not listen to them, but-rather [you (plur.)] serve the king of Babilonia, and you (plur.) will-live. Wish this city will- not -be-destroyed!” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “Do not pay attention to what they say. Surrender to the king of Babylon. If you do that, you will remain alive. If you do not do that , this entire city will be destroyed.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
