Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Chronicles 21:20:
- Kupsabiny: “When Jehoram started to rule, he had thirty-two years. He ruled in Jerusalem for eight years. When he died, no one was at all surprised. Then he was buried at a place which was not where the kings were buried in the City of David.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Newari: “Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king. He reigned in Jerusalem eight years. When he died no one felt any grief. They buried his corpse in the city of David, but not in the tomb for the kings.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “Jehoram was 32 years old when he reigned. He lived in Jerusalem, and he reigned within the (period) of eight years. When he died no one had-mourned for him. He was buried in the Town of David, but not in the burial-place of the kings.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “Jehoram was 32 years old when he became the king, and he ruled in Jerusalem for eight years. No one was sorry when he died. His corpse was buried in the part of Jerusalem called ‘The City of David’, but he was not buried where the other kings of Judah had been buried.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
