Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Joshua 7:14:
- Kupsabiny: “You will be called tomorrow morning to come according to clans. Then I will point out the clan from which the sin has come. After that, I shall point out within that clan the house from which the sin has come. After that, I shall point out the man from that house from which the sin has come.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Newari: “’So in the morning you are to come forward according to your tribes and the LORD will show which tribe. That tribe must come forward clan by clan. The LORD will show which clan. That family line must come forward household by household. The LORD will show which household. That household must come forward man by man. ” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “So tomorrow morning, [you (plur.)] come-near to me according-to your (plur.) tribes. The tribe which I will-point-out which has-sinned is-to-come-near according to their clan/descendants. The clan/descendants whom I point-out who has-sinned are-to-come-near according to their families. And the family which I point-out who has-sinned are-to-come-near each one.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
