- Kupsabiny: “Someone is to hang up that curtain on the four acacia poles/pillars which are coated with gold while hanging from the golden clips/hooks and standing on the four things made of silver. The Tent is to be divided using that curtain with the clips/hooks which are on the poles holding (it) and after that, the Covenant Box together with the two stone tablets is to be placed inside that inner room covered/veiled by the curtain.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Newari: “After the hanging of the curtain by means of the hooks is completed then put behind it the ark of the covenant. The curtain will separate the most Holy Place from the Holy Place.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “When the curtain is-hung from the hook, put the Box of the Agreement behind it. The curtain is-the-one that will-separate the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- Bariai: “Put this big cloth down in the middle of my shelter’s interior in order for it to split my shelter’s interior so that it becomes two. One interior of the shelter is the place which has a somewhat great taboo/mark of ownership. And the other interior of the shelter, which is behind the big cloth, this is the place which has a very great taboo/mark of ownership. And take the box of the law which exists as a sign of the agreement/decision which I struck with you (pl.), and so place it down behind this big cloth, in the place which has a very great taboo.” (Source: Bariai Back Translation)
- Opo: “you shall hang cloth of door there. When you will hang it after, put sacred box within it. Thus, inside of tent which be holy with inside of inside of tent which be sacred-place, cloth of door will sever it [mouth].” (Source: Opo Back Translation)
- English: “They must suspend/hang the top of the curtain by hooks that are fastened to the roof of the Sacred Tent. Behind the curtain, in the room called the Very Holy Place, they must put the chest containing the two stone slabs on which I have written my commandments. That curtain will separate the Holy Place from the Very Holy Place.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
