Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Ezra 8:28:

• Kupsabiny: “And thereafter, I said that, ‘You and these items are set apart for God. Silver and gold are things people offered freely to God who is the God of fathers/ancestors.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Newari: “I said to them, "You are holy for the LORD God of our ancestors. Likewise, the gold and silver and utensils that are offered to Him by one’s own desire are also holy.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “I said to the priests, ‘You (plur.) and these articles are-dedicated to the LORD. The silver and gold are freewill offering for the LORD, the God of your (plur.) ancestors.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “I said to those priests, ‘You belong to Yahweh, the God whom our ancestors worshiped/also belonged to, and these valuable things also belong to him. The people themselves gave these things to be offerings to Yahweh voluntarily/because they wanted to.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
