complete verse (Ezra 3:10)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Ezra 3:10:

  • Kupsabiny: “And when the builders had finished the foundation of the House of God, the priests dressed in their clothes and took their horns/trumpets, and the Levites who came from the house of Asaph took the cymbals and they all praised God as David who was leader/king of Israel had said.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “After the foundations had been laid, the priests who built the temple of the LORD got dressed, took trumpets and levites of clan of Asaph, taking cymbals stood to praise the LORD as commanded by David, the former King of Israel.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “When the workers had-finished the foundation of the temple of the LORD, the priests positioned to sound the trumpets. They wore their clothes as priests. The Levites, the descendants of Asaf, also positioned to play the cymbals in-order to praise the LORD according to the way that was-taught before by King David of Israel.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “When the builders finished laying the foundation of the temple, the priests put on their robes and stood in their places, blowing their trumpets. Then the Levites, who were descendants of Asaph, clashed/banged their cymbals to praise Yahweh, just as King David had many years previously told Asaph and the other musicians to do.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
