complete verse (Daniel 3:27)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Daniel 3:27:

  • Kupsabiny: “All the leaders of that nation/country gathered there together with the councilors/advisers of the king. When they looked, the fire had not burned the three men, neither their hair nor their clothes had been burnt and they were not even smelling of smoke.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Then the district officers, administrators, governors, and people who advised the king gathered around to look at the four bodies. They discovered that the fire had not done any harm to their bodies, and their hair was not even singed [lit.: eaten by fire]. Their clothing had not been burned, and they did not even smell of fire.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Then the governors, mayors, commissioners, and other officials of the king gathered around them. And they saw that they (were) not harmed by the fire. Even their hair or clothes (were) not burned at-all, and not even the bad-smell of smoke.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Then all the king’s officials crowded around them. They saw that the flames had not harmed them. The flames had not even singed any of the hair on their heads or scorched any of their clothes! There was not even any smell of smoke on them!” (Source: Translation for Translators)
