The term in John 1:14 that is translated as «tabernacle» or «dwell» (also: «lived») in English versions is translated in Hakha Chin as “made his village among us,” an expression that shows he was not just a casual visitor. (Source: David Clark)

Huehuetla Tepehua translates it as «came and lived with us here a little while.» (Source: M. Larson / B. Moore in Notes on Translation February 1970, p. 1-125.)

In the German translation by Fridolin Stier (1989) it is translates as «he pitched (or: lived in) his tent among us.»

See also tabernacle (noun).
