Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Chronicles 34:21:

  • Kupsabiny: “‘Go and ask God about the words of this book that has been found. Do that on behalf of me and the remainder of Israel and Judah. God is very angry with us because our forefathers did not obey the words of God that have been written in this book.’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Go there and make request of the LORD to find out what has been written in that book concerning the king, and the people still living in Israel and Judea. For it is because our ancestors did not listen to the LORD God and because they did not obey all that was written in this book that we are having to bear God’s anger.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “‘Ask the LORD for me and for the remnant people of Israel and Juda concerning what was written in the book that has-been-found. The anger of the LORD to us (incl.) was very great/much because our ancestors did- not -obey the word of the LORD. We surely do- not -obey what was-written in this book.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “‘Go and ask Yahweh for me, and for all his people who are still alive in Judah and Israel, about what is written in this scroll that has been found. Because it is clear that Yahweh is very angry with us because our ancestors disobeyed what Yahweh said; they did not obey the laws that are written on this scroll.’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
