- Yakan: “Listen, there I am figuratively like a person standing at your door knocking, asking-for-it-to-be-opened. If someone hears my voice and opens the door, I will go in and we (excl.) will eat together.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
- Western Bukidnon Manobo: “Listen because I am here at your door calling. If there is a person who hears Me and opens the door for Me, I will come in and I will eat with him and he also will eat with Me.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
