Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Numbers 5:7:
- Kupsabiny: “Then that person must repent and bring a ram which can be used for a ceremony for him to be made clean through it. He must also pay/compensate for all the things of (the) people and add on top twenty in a hundred. If the person has died so that the things cannot be paid back and he does not have another of his family, the things/compensation to be paid is to be given to God so it can belong to the priest.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Newari: “He/she must confess his/her sin. And if he/she has destroyed anything of the person whom he has troubled, [he/she] must pay to have it replaced [lit.: for its replacement]. Along with [that] [he/she] must pay an additional 20% as penalty. [lit.: Along with [that] a one part in five parts more penalty must be paid.]” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “He/She must confess his/her sin that (he/she) has-committed, and he/she will-pay in-full the things that he took or destroyed, and still he/she will-add 20 percent more of its value. He/she will-give this to all the people that he/she had-done- wrong -to.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “That person must confess that he or she is guilty, and he or she must pay to the person to whom wrong was done what others consider to be a suitable/proper payment for what he has done, and he must pay an extra 20 percent.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
