Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Judges 7:20:

  • Newari: β€œ[Then] the three groups blew their trumpets and smashed [their] pitchers. Taking a torch in the left hand and a trumpet in the right hand they cried out like this — "A sword for the LORD and for Gideon."” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: β€œThat was also what the (other) two groups did. And while their left hands were-holding the lamps and their right hands (were holding) the horns/trumpets, they were-shouting, β€˜Let- us (incl.) -fight for the LORD and for Gideon.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: β€œThen the men in all three groups blew their horns and smashed their jars. They held the torches high with their left hands, and held up the horns with their right hands and alternatively blew them and shouted, β€˜We have swords to fight for Yahweh and for Gideon!’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
