Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 1 Samuel 28:14:

  • Kupsabiny: “Saul asked that woman that, ‘How is (it/he)?’ That woman said that, ‘An old man wearing a long coat.’ When that woman talked like that, Saul realized that it was Samuel’s spirit. He prostrated face down.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Saul asked, ‘What (is) his appearance/form?’ He replied, ‘An old man who has a cover/cloak-for-the-back/cape.’ Then Saul knew that (it was) Samuel, and he knelt-down as a respect to him.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Saul said, ‘What does he look like?’
    The woman replied, ‘An old man wearing a robe is appearing.’
    Then Saul knew that it was Samuel. So he bowed down with his face touching the ground.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
