Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Kings 23:16:

• Kupsabiny: “But when Josiah turned around he saw small caves in a hill. Then he sent for bones to be taken from those caves and then he burned those bones on top of the altar so that the altar was defiled. He did this following the words that a prophet of God had said.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Newari: “Then Josiah looked hither and thither. Seeing tombs on a nearby hill, he had the bones taken out of those tombs. Then, to desecrate that altar he burned those bones there. He did this deed in accordance with the word of the LORD that was spoken through the man of God who predicted this matter.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “And while he was-looking around, he saw the burial-place by the side of the mountain. He had- the bones -taken from the burial-place and he burned (them) there at the altar in Betel to defile it. This happened just-as what the LORD had-said through his servant who prophesied/predicted these things.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “Then Josiah looked around and saw some tombs there on the hill. He commanded his men to take the bones out of those tombs and burn them on the altar. By doing that, he desecrated the altar. That was what a prophet had predicted many years before when Jeroboam #1 was standing close to that altar at a festival.
  Then Josiah looked up and saw the tomb of the prophet who had predicted that.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
