39. _Ma u manbal cuntahbalob u c[=h]inal_; Avila translates this "that
they shall not destroy"; but the word _cuntahbal_, from _cun_, _cumtah_,
means that which is to be enchanted, and _c[=h]inal_ is the throwing of
stones. I suppose, therefore, it refers to some act of shamanism the
design of which was to injure a neighbor.
