complete verse (2 Chronicles 32:5)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Chronicles 32:5:

  • Kupsabiny: “Then Hezekiah took courage and rebuilt every place that had been damaged in the wall of Jerusalem. He built on top of that wall things from where one could see far. When he had finished, he built a second wall outside the first one and prepared well an area that was called Millo in the City of David. He also prepared very many spears and shields.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Picking up courage, wherever the city wall had collapsed, he repaired it and built towers on it. Outside the city wall he built another wall around it. And he strengthened the terraces that supported the City of David. He also made many weapons and shields.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Then Hezekia strengthened more his defenses by repairing the stone-walls and building towers. He surrounded another stone-wall for the city outside the old stone-wall, and heaped-up soil on the lower part of the Town of David. He also made many weapons and shields.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Then they worked hard to repair all the sections of the city wall that had been broken, and they built watchtowers on the walls. They built another wall outside/around the wall that was already outside the city, and they strengthened the defenses on the sloping terraces on the east side of the area called ‘The City of David’. They also made a large number of weapons and shields.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
