Translation #3:
THE ONE Avail oneself of something well into X100, along ado from the fist. The killer well into Curyok IV , she lights blackens

Well, first, through out the 3rd translation, It makes no sense, like a sentence strung together with random words and no grammar, plus it doesn't mesh with the other two, Now, for the first part, I think it's obvious that the Avenger is a ship or unit in the X100 system. My best guess is that it's a warning to remove presence from the system. Agitating the fist, as if yelling angrily. The killer/matador is a even trickier. My first guess would be that the Curyok is a black hole system (it darkens light), except that it's a planet ("IV"). I agree that it could be a cloacked ship, though I have an unexplicable gut instinct it's a little more complicated than that. Perhaps a threat to destroy the star? Again, it seems a little too literal... Maybe if you take the tone of the sentence rather than the exact words, like an attack.

My sketchy first draft would be something like:
"Remove your ship from X100, we are in a position to (capture/destroy) your planet Curyok IV.

Am I even close?

Edit: Oh, and even as I'm reading/posting in this thread, ST:Voyager is on. The episode where Tom finds the "Diamond in the rough" ship with the neurogenic interface. (Didn't catch the subtitle.)
