Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Ecclesiastes 8:3:

• Newari: “You are not to feel in a hurry to leave the presence of the king. Do not decide to take side with any evil thing either, for the king will do exactly what he desires.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “Do not neglect your (sing.) obligation to the king, and you (sing.) do- not -join with the ones (who) plan evil against him, for the king can do whatever he pleases.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
