Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Samuel 5:8:

• Kupsabiny: “Then David said, ‘For us to fight this people, we have to follow the channel that water of this town flows through and we go and stab/kill those enemies who are blind and lame.’ That is where the word/saying which was said began from (saying) that, ‘People who are blind will never enter inside the house and the people who are lame.’ Even if it is like that, David took the home/house which was guarded well on the mountain of Zion, where it was later called City of David. David made/repaired/renovated that city beginning from Millo and round there.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Newari: “That day David said, "Whoever defeats the Jebusites by attacking them first, must go from the water canal and meet David’s enemies, the blind and the lame." So David’s words became a proverb, "None of the blind or lame will get to come to the palace."” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “When David had- not yet -entered Jerusalem, he said to his men, ‘You (plur.) go-through in the channel/passageway of water so-that you (plur.) can-enter Jerusalem and you (plur.) will-defeat the Jebusnon who seems-like lame and blind. I really hate/[lit. against] them!’ That is why there is a proverb/sayings that says, ‘The blind and the lame can- not -get-in into the house of the LORD.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “On that day, David said to his soldiers, ‘Those who want to get rid of the Jebus people-group should go through the water tunnel to enter the city. Then they can attack those people whom I detest—and we will find out if any blind and crippled people will be able to stop them!’ That is why people say, ‘Blind and crippled people cannot enter Yahweh’s temple.’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
