Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Judges 21:22:

• Kupsabiny: “And if the father or brothers come to threaten us, we shall say, ‘Please, you are people who can listen to words/reason. Let these men marry your girls because we did not find enough girls for them all when we destroyed Jabesh-gilead. And again, you have not done a mistake because it was not you who gave your girls to them to marry.’ ’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Newari: “Then if their fathers and brothers come to speak with us, we will say, ‘Please have pity on us by helping them, for we were not able to bring brides for them in battle. You will incur no guilt. For you have not given your daughters.’"” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “If indeed their fathers or brothers will-complain to us (excl.), this is what we (excl.) will-say to them, ‘Please you (plur.) just leave- them -alone because the ladies whom we (incl.) took-away when we (incl.) attacked Jabesh Gilead were not enough. You (plur.) have nothing to-reason-out because you (plur.) did- not -allow that the Benjaminhon will-take-as-wife your (plur.) female children/(daughters).’ ’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “If their fathers or brothers come to us and complain about what you have done, we will say to them, ‘Be kind to the men of the tribe of Benjamin. When we fought them, we did not leave any women alive to become their wives, and you did not give those young women to the men from the tribe of Benjamin. They stole them. So you will not be guilty, even though you said that you would not allow any of your daughters to marry one of them.’ ’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
