Amazingly, the only word I had to make up for this was 'other'.

Nul kîrratvi kaxlix narrâssarits jie, onune estsekk sitsi masarni eta.
nu-ACC kîrrat-OBL narra-IRR-FUT-2P jie, oun-ACC est-ACC-3P siti-GEN
mas.a-FUT-1P-SG eta.

I-ACC (insane-person)-OBL name-IRR-FUT-2P again, eye-ACC other-ACC-3P
you-GEN eat-FUT-1P-SG resultantly.

If you are to be calling me an insane person again, I will eat your other
eye.

In fairly cross-platform IPA:

/nul 'ki:ratvi 'kaSlIS 'nara:s:arIts dZjE 'onunE 'estsEk 'sitsi 'masarni
'eta/
/r/ is a trill, or sometimes a tap in clusters.
