Until now, I've never actually done that. Normally I use some other text, often the Lord's Prayer or the Tower of Babel passage. In the case of the Torantine languages, I've often used a number of writings that are in the Torantine culture - a story of the origin of kings, a collections of wise sayings, etc.
