Probably native South American language from Brazil ?.
I think I heard a syllable-final , which may narrow things a little.
That last comment supposed to refer to a syllable-final t͡ʃʰ.
I don’t think this language is spoken in Brazil as it seems to be all about NoE (Noah) and his God, who is rendered as Spanish ‘dios’ and not as Portuguese ‘deus’.
Far from knowing, which language it actually is, I guess it is spoken far more in the North of South America or even in Central America approaching the Mayan languages.
It’s a variety of K’iche’, or at least another Mayan language really close to it.
The answer is Uspantek (Uspanteco), a Mayan language spoken in Quiché department of Guatamala.
