Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Chronicles 24:11:
- Kupsabiny: “When the money had filled up the box, the Levites brought it to the king’s people/servants. The secretary to the king and the assistant to the big priest took out the money, and then, that box was returned to where it was sitting. Those people did like that every day until they had collected much money.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Newari: “When that chest was full, the Levites carried it to the king’s officials and the king’s feast manager and the high priest came and took out the money. Then that chest was put back in its former place. By doing like this day after day a great deal of money was collected.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “If the box is already full, the Levites bring it to the official of the king. Then the secretary of the king and the official of the leading priest count it, and after-that they bring back the box there at the gate of the temple. This is what they do every day until the collection became-many.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “Whenever the descendants of Levi brought the chest to the king’s officials, and they saw that there was a lot of money in it, the king’s secretary and the assistant to the Supreme Priest would take all the money from the chest, and then put the chest back in its place. They did this frequently, and they collected a huge amount of money.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
