Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Kings 18:20:

• Kupsabiny: “Do you really think that speaking/words alone give you wisdom and power in battle? Who do you rely on now so that you are rebelling against me?” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Newari: “You say that you have the power of soldiers and a war plan, but you are speaking useless words. In whom have you been putting your confidence? And why have you decided to rebell against me?” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “Do you (sing.) think you (sing.) will-win the battle by word only and not in the ability and strength of your (sing.) soldiers? To-whom are you (sing.) trusting that you (sing.) rebelled against me?” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “You say that you have weapons to fight us, and some country promises to help you, and that will enable you to defeat us, but that is only talk. Who do you think will help you to rebel against my soldiers from Assyria?” (Source: Translation for Translators)
