Using an older language for this, because I feel it’s much better-suited than my latest one for weighty Tokien-esque utterances:
Athempāmpunīthən, Kāntal rəsanunathaŋkan, wərēꞵanəthēyochizamicīsha.
/ˈaɹeˌmpaːmpuˌniːɹən | ˈkaːntal rəˈsanuˌnaɹaˌŋkan | wəˈreːβanəˌɹeːjoɰiˌzamiˌciːɕa/

3s.O-1s.IO-2s.A-NP-IRR-BEN-say-IMP, Gandalf 3s.A-stand-LOC-MED-is-OBJ, 1s.A-INT-PFV-[3s.O-go-NP-COM-speak-ACT]-want
(Also, it may be worth noting that this is specifically from the
movie of this title, not the book.)

Part of a story I'm currently writing:
Long ago, a Mortal was found sneaking around God's Palace, looking at things never meant to be seen by mortal eyes.
Daas:
Zui'u, hya ez ze'du da le jon'uzu lu biviti lau pai Oo'dio pe Ra'tekae'dai, de joiz lu we'joiz'ron je'ke.
/zu:iʔu hyɑ ɛʒ zɛʔdu dɑ lɛ jonʔu:zu lu biviti lɑu pɑi o:ʔdio pɛ rɑʔtekɑɛʔdɑi de joiz lu wɛʔjoizʔron jɛʔkɛ/
In ancient times, a mortal was seen sneaking in the Highest King's Palace, seeing things not meant to be seen.
