Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Genesis 25:18:

  • Newari: “The sons of Ishmael, along the road going east from Egypt towards Assyria — were living from Havilah to Shur. Not being in agreement with the other descendants of Abraham, they were living separately.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “His descendants lived in the places from Havila until Shur, east of Egipto going-to Asiria. They fought-against all their relatives who-were the descendants of Isaac.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “His descendants settled/went to live in the area between Shur and Havilah, near the border of Egypt as a person travels toward Asshur. All of their camps were close to each other (OR, they all frequently attacked each other).” (Source: Translation for Translators)
