Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Ecclesiastes 7:1:

    and the day when a person dies is more important that the day of birth.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “A good name is better than very fragrant perfume,
    and the day you die is also better than the day you were born.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
