Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Judges 15:5:

  • Kupsabiny: “When he had set fire to the torches, he let the mongooses go. Then the animals entered the fields of the Philistines for the tied/bound up wheat together with the still standing wheat to burn until/including also the gardens of grapevines and olive trees.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Then he lit the torches. And [he] released the young foxes in the Philistine’s fields of growing wheat. That growing grain with the sheafs, the gardens of grapes and gardens of olive trees were also burned.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Then he lit the torches and let- the foxes -go through the wheat of the Filistinhon. All the wheat was-burned, not only the ones-bundled-up already but-rather including the ones-that-had- not -been-bundled-up. The fields of grapes and olives were-burned also.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Then he lit the torches and let the foxes run through the fields of the Philistines. The fire from the torches burned all the grain to the ground, including the grain that had been cut and piled in bundles. The fire also burned down their grapevines and their olive trees.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
