Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 1 Samuel 24:4:

• Kupsabiny: “David was told by his people that, ‘This is the day God said that, ‘I will place your enemy in your hands so that you do to him whatever you want.’ ’ Then David went stealthily and cut off a corner of Saul’s coat without him realizing.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Newari: “David’s men said to him, "This is that very day about which the LORD has spoken. He has delivered your enemies into your hand and you can do to them what you like." Without Saul’s being aware, David went, bent down quietly and cut off the border of his shawl.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “The men of David said to him, ‘This is now the time the LORD spoke-(about) that he would-hand- your (sing.) enemies -over to you (sing.) and its-up-to you (sing.) what you (sing.) wish/want/desire to-do with him.’ Then David crawled towards Saul and he cut-(off) an edge/(hem) of the garment of Saul unnoticed.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “David’s men saw Saul and whispered to David, ‘Today is the day that Yahweh spoke about when he said, ‘I will enable you to defeat your enemy.’ You can do to him whatever you want to!’ So David crept toward the entrance of the cave and with his knife he cut off a piece of Saul’s robe.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
