Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Daniel 5:23:

• Kupsabiny: “You abused/shamed the God of heaven by bringing utensils from the House of God and using them for drinking wine with your nobles/leaders, wives and concubines. Again, you worshiped idols made of gold, silver, bronze, iron, wood and stone. Those are things without eyes, without ears for hearing and they do not know anything. But you did not honor God who rules over your life and knows everything you do.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Newari: “Instead of that you have done work in opposition to the Lord of heaven. The cups brought from his temple have been brought here. And you and the officials, your wives and concubines have drunk wine from those articles. And gods made of gold, silver, bronze, iron, wood and stone you have praised. Those gods are neither able to hear, nor to see, nor to know anything at all. Even though your lives [lit.: breath] and your ways are in God’s hand, you have not honored him.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “instead you (sing.) considered yourself greater-than the Lord of heaven. You (sing.) had- the drinking-cups from the temple of God -taken and you (sing.) and your (sing.) noble guests, wives and other slave wives drank from it. Aside from that, you (sing.) worshipped the gods made of silver, gold, bronze, iron, wood, and stone — gods that can- not -see, hear, and understand. But you (sing.) did- not -praise the God who holds your (sing.) life and controls/wills everything that you (sing.) do.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “You have considered yourself to be greater than God, the Lord of heaven. So you have commanded your servants to bring to you these sacred cups, which were dedicated to the Supreme God, and which were taken from his temple in Jerusalem. You and your officials and your wives and your concubines/slave wives have been drinking wine from these cups, while you have been praising your own gods—gods which are made of gold and silver and bronze and iron and wood and stone. Those are gods that cannot see, that cannot hear, and that do not know anything! You have not honored the God who gives you breath and who controls everything that happens to you.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
