Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Joshua 17:10:
- Kupsabiny: “The cities south of the valley belonged to Ephraim, the cities on the side of north belonged to Manasse. It was the ocean which was the border of the land of Manasse towards the west. But/and towards the north was the land of Asher and to the east was the land of Issachar.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Newari: “The area towards the south, however, belongs to Ephraim and the area towards the north belongs to Manasseh. The boundary of the area of Manasseh is the sea. Then the boundary towards the north touches Asher and towards the east it touches Issachar.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “The land south of the stream belongs-to the tribe of Efraim and the land north of the stream belongs-to the tribe of Manase. The boundary of the land of the tribe of Manase in the west is the Sea of Mediteraneo. The tribe of Manase is next-to the tribe of Asher to the north and to the tribe of Issachar to the east.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “The land on the south side of the gorge belonged to the tribe of Ephraim, and the land on the north side belonged to the tribe of Manasseh. The western border of the land allotted to the tribe of Manasseh was the Mediterranean Sea. To the north, the border of their land extended from the land allotted to the tribe of Asher at the northwest to the land allotted to the tribe of Issachar at the northeast.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
