And another from paq'raD, Canto 19, Stanza 5 (spoken by Molor to Kahless):

  bIlay'DI' qaHarbe'
   [...]  
  jIlay'DI' reH batlh jIpabchugh
  Qapla'meywIj Hoch vIta'ta' 'e' DaHar'a'

  Your word means nothing to me,
   [...]
  Did you think that my word of honor
  Would have carried me this far?


and yet another from paq'raD, Canto 2 (page 101):

  loDnI'wI'
  bIQeHba'
  chaq batlh bIvangqa'laH  

  My brother, I see your anger,
  You might have a chance
  To make amends.
