The Greek that is translated as «magician» is translated in Teutila Cuicatec and Eastern Highland Otomi as «witch doctor» and in Lalana Chinantec as «person who grabs magic words.» (Source: Viola Waterhouse in Notes on Translation August 1966, p. 86ff.)
In Kalmyk the word used for magician means «deceiver, cheat, charlatan.» (Source: David Clark in The Bible Translator 2013, p. 54ff. )
