Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Genesis 36:6:
- Newari: “Esau took all the members of his family, the cows, sheep and other cattle and property he had gathered in the land of Canaan, separated from his younger brother Jacob, and went to another land.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “Esau took his wives, children, and all who (were) under-the-jurisdiction of his family, as-well-as his possessions and livestock that he had-gathered in Canaan, and he moved to a place going-far-away from Jacob his sibling/(brother).” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “Jacob and Esau had very many possessions. The result was that they needed more land for their livestock. The land where they were living was not big enough for both of them. They had too much livestock. So Esau, whose other name was Edom, had taken his wives and sons and daughters and all the other members of his household, his sheep and goats and his other animals, and all the other things he had obtained in Canaan land, and they had moved to an area that was away from Jacob.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
