Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Chronicles 25:20:

• Newari: “But Amaziah did not listen to his advice. It was God’s desire that Amaziah be defeated. For he had worshipped the idol of the Edomite god.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “But Amazia would- not -listen, for God worked-out that he would-be-destroyed by Jehoash because of his worshipping the gods of Edom.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
