complete verse (Numbers 8:19)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Numbers 8:19:

  • Kupsabiny: “I took the clan of Levi and I gave them to Aaron and his sons so that they can do the work in my Tent for the Israelites and make sacrifices for sweeping away sin. In this way they shall prevent the people of Israel from disaster which might befall them if they come near my Tent.’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “And of all the Israelites, I have chosen the Levites for Aaron and his sons. They will serve in the Tent of Meeting for the Israelites and make sacrifices to make atonements for the people so no plague will strike them when they approach the Holy Area."” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Of all the Israelinhon, the descendants of Levi are the ones- I -have-chosen to help Aaron and his children. They will-serve at the Meeting-Together-Place Tent for the Israelinhon, and they will-do the ceremonies in-order that the Israelinhon will-be-forgiven/redeemed of their sins, so-that when they go-near the Meeting-Together-Place Tent no disaster/destruction will-come to them.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “I have appointed the descendants of Levi to help Aaron and his sons at the Sacred Tent, as Aaron and his sons offer the sacrifices so that the Israeli people’s sins will be forgiven, and to prevent the Israelis from coming close to the tent with the result that a plague would cause many of them to become sick and die.’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
