complete verse (2 Chronicles 21:13)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Chronicles 21:13:

  • Kupsabiny: “But you followed the evil ways of the kings of Israel. You also caused the people of Judah and Jerusalem to refuse to trust/believe in me as the house of Ahab did. And again, you killed your brothers who were more kind than you are.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “You are not like your father Jehoshaphat or like king Asa. But you became like the clan of Ahab. You became like those northern kings of Israel. By provoking the people of Judah and Jerusalem to do puja to idols you caused them to sin against the LORD. You also killed your younger brothers, they were better men than you. ” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Instead, you followed the way-of-living of the kings of Israel. You enticed those of/from-Juda and those of/from-Jerusalem to worship little-gods/false-gods like what Ahab had-done. You also killed your own siblings who were better than you.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Instead, you have continually done the evil things that the kings of Israel have done. You have encouraged the people in Jerusalem and other places in Judah to stop worshiping Yahweh, like the descendants of Ahab did. You have also murdered your own brothers, who were more righteous men than you are.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
