complete verse (Daniel 5:27)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Daniel 5:27:

  • Kupsabiny: “tēkēl means that you have been scrutinized/measured and found weak.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “TEKEL — You have been weighed on the scales and found to be light.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Tekel means that you (sing.) were-weighed/measured by God, and he found-out that you (sing.) are lacking.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “sc Tekelsc* means ‘weighed’. It is as though God has weighed you on a scale, and you do not weigh what you should, which means that you have not been doing what you should; you are not fit to be a king.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
