• Hiligaynon: “But they really persisted/urged until he was just ashamed to refuse. So he said, ‘Alright/Go-on, you (plur.) have- them -go.’ So they had- the 50 men -go, and for the period/[lit. inside] of three days they looked-for Elias but they never found him.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
