Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Judges 18:2:

  • Kupsabiny: “Then, the people of the clan of Dan chose five brave warriors from Zorah and Eshtaol who could be sent. The men were sent off with these words: ‘Go and check out that land.’ As they were going, they stumbled on the home of Micah in the highlands of Ephraim and stayed in that home.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “So the tribe of Dan chose five fearless men from among all the families of their tribe. And they were sent from the cities of Zorah and Eshtaol to spy on them and search the land.
    After those five men arrived in the hill country of Ephraim, they stayed at night of Micah’s house.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “So the descendants of Dan chose five brave men from their tribe to look for their place-to-live. These five men came from the towns of Zora and Eshtaol.
    When they set-out now to look for a place, they arrived at the house of Micas in the mountains of Efraim, and they slept there.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “So they chose five soldiers from their clans, men who lived in Zorah and Eshtaol cities, to go through the land and explore it and try to find some land where their tribe could live.
    They came to Micah’s house in the hilly area where the tribe of Ephraim lived, and they stayed there that night.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
