Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Ezekiel 4:9:

  • Kupsabiny: “Take wheat, barley, beans, peas/lentils, millet and sorghum. Mix all these things to prepare from them bread that you can eat until those three hundred and ninety days are over while you lie on one side.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “‘Now, you get some wheat, barley, seeds of vegetable, beans, millet and spelt, and put these all in one container and that is what you will-make into bread. This is what you will-eat for a period/[lit. inside] of 390 days that you are-lying-down side-way on the left.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Before you do that, take some wheat and barley, beans, lentils, spelt and millet, and put them in a storage jar, and use that to bake breadfor yourself. That is what you will eat during the 390 days while you lie on your left side.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
