Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Samuel 13:32:

  • Kupsabiny: “But Jonadab the son of the brother of David said, ‘Master/lord, they have not killed all your sons. Amnon alone is the one who was killed. Absalom had thoughts like that ever since that day when Amnon pressed/raped his sister.’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Jonadab, son of Shimeah, David’s younger brother said, "They have not killed all your sons. They have only killed Amnon. He has been trying to do this from the day Amnon raped Absalom’s younger sister Tamar.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “But Jonadab the child of the brother of David which is Simea said, ‘Beloved King, not all your male children are dead but only Amnon. It-has-been-a-long-time that Absalom intended to kill Amnon from the day that he raped his sibling Tamar.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “But Jonadab, the son of David’s brother Shimeah, said, ‘Your Majesty, I am sure that they have not killed all your sons. I am sure that only Amnon is dead, because Absalom has determined to do this ever since the day that Amnon raped his half-sister Tamar.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
