- Kupsabiny: “Please, God has said,
‘I am God who is guarding this field.
I sprinkle water on it again and again.
I am guarding this field day and night
so that no one spoils it.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “I, the LORD, will take care of it.
I will be giving it water.
I will care for it night and day,
otherwise someone might be able to destroy it.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “I, the LORD, is the one-(who)-takes-care of this field of grapes/(vineyard). I always water it. I guard it day-(and)-night so-that no one may harm it.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)

like a farmer waters his crops carefully in order that they will grow well.
I will guard you day and night, in order that no one harms you.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
