complete verse (2 Chronicles 7:7)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Chronicles 7:7:

  • Kupsabiny: “Solomon cleansed the middle of the compound of the House of God so that (he/they) could burn sacrifices there because the altar of bronze was not adequate/enough. (He/they) made there sacrifices that were burned completely, food that were given as gifts (grain offerings) and fat from the fellowship offerings.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “After that Solomon consecrated the middle part of the courtyard in front of the LORD’s temple. There he offered burnt offerings and the fat of peace offerings. For the bronze altar he had made could not contain the burnt offerings, grain offerings and portions of fat.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Solomon dedicated the yard/court that is in front of the temple of the LORD. Solomon and company offered there burnt offerings, gift offerings, and fats as an offering for good relations. For the bronze altar he had-made (was) too small for these offerings.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Solomon dedicated the middle part of the courtyard in front of the temple. Then he gave offerings to be completely burned there along with the fat of the animals to be sacrificed to maintain fellowship with Yahweh. The priests burned them there in the courtyard because in addition to those things there were offerings of grain, with the result that there was not enough space on the bronze altar to burn all those sacrifices.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
