Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Genesis 9:5:

• Kankanaey: «‘The lives of you people are also valuable, because I made you similar to myself just the same. Therefore whoever kills a person, I condemn (him) to bear-the-consequences, because if there is an animal that kills a person, I will punish it so-that that’s his cause-of-death. If there is also a person who kills his fellow, a person just the same will be the-one-to-kill him.» (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• Newari: «I will keep account of your blood. With all animals and people, I will keep account of the blood of people.» (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: «I will-ask-for-payment to whoever will-kill you (pl.), even the animals. I will-ask-for-payment to whoever will-kill his fellow-human-being.» (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: «I insist that murderers must be executed. Animals that kill people must also be executed. The reason that everyone who murders someone else must be executed is that» (Source: Translation for Translators)
