Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Exodus 28:30:
- Kupsabiny: “Place (sing.) those things called Urim and Thummim, which are used for inquiring issues in the pocket worn on the chest so that Aaron will always be having it when he is coming before me God. He should ever be putting on this pocket so that he will be inquiring what I God desire from the Israelites.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Newari: “Put the ‘Urim’ and ‘Thummim’ in the judging breast piece. These should always be with him when Aaron goes in front of the Lord. In this way Aaron will always have with him the tools for judging over his heart whenever he goes before the Lord for the Israelites.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “Put the Urim and Thumim on the like-pocket(s) on the chest so it will-be on the chest of Aaron when he goes to my presence. So Aaron will- always -bring these two things when he goes to my presence so he will-know my will for the Israelinhon.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- Bariai: “And also, you (pl.) must take two things which are helping the man of offerings to receive knowledge of God’s will, and so place them into the fold of his chest’s cloth. Therefore when Aron enters the interior of my shelter and comes close to me, then these two things will be existing close to his chest, and so it will be helping him to receive knowledge about what things I want the Israel people to be doing.’” (Source: Bariai Back Translation)
- Opo: “So, inside of pocket of cloth of chest, you shall put tassel which be called Urim with Thummim in it. When he comes before me, I Yahweh, he will come with that tassel on chest, in order that he might come ask me thing about children of Israel always.” (Source: Opo Back Translation)
- English: “Put into the sacred pouch the two things that the priest will use to determine my answers to the questions he asks. In that way, they will be close to his chest when he enters the Holy Place to talk to me. He will use them to find out what is my will for the Israeli people.’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
