Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 1 Chronicles 17:13:

• Kupsabiny: “I shall be his father and he shall be my child. I shall not turn my back on him as I turned my back on the one you have replaced (as king).” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Newari: “I will be his father and he will be my son. I will never take back my love from him like I took back my love from Saul who reigned before you.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “I will-be-like a father to him, and he-will-be-like a son to me. My love will-remain for him, (it is) not like what- I -did to Saul whom you (sing.) succeeded as king.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “I will be like a father to him, and it will be as though he is a son to me. I stopped loving Saul, the one who was the king before you became king, but I will never stop loving your son.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
