Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Nehemiah 7:63:

- Hiligaynon: “The descendants of Habaya, Hacoz, and Barzilai could not also prove that they were priests. (When this Barzilai had-taken-a-wife, he carried the name of his father-in-law Barzilai who comes-from-Gilead.)” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “Priests from the clans of Hobaiah, Hakkoz, and Barzillai also returned. Barzillai had married a woman who is a descendant of a man named Barzillai from the Gilead region, and he had taken his wife’s family name.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
