Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Chronicles 26:15:

  • Kupsabiny: “There in Jerusalem were constructed machines in a skilled way, that were used to throw arrows and big stones. He placed those machines where one could see far and at the corners of the wall. Then the name of Uzziah became known far away because God came to his aid so that he became very powerful.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “He appointed craftsmen who knew how to make machines to shoot arrows and large rocks from towers of Jerusalem and from corners of the city wall. So his fame spread far and wide. Because he had such amazing things his fame spread all around. Because he had help from God he became very powerful.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Uzia also had-made things-to-use to the skillful workers to be used to hit-by-bow and to-throw big stone from the towers and to the corners of the stone-walls. Uzia became famous everywhere, because the LORD helped him until he became powerful.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “In Jerusalem his skilled workers made machines to put on the watchtowers and on the corners of the walls, to shoot arrows and to hurl large stones. He became very famous even in distant places, because God helped him very much and enabled him to become very powerful.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
