  • Kupsabiny: “And/But when the people of that city arose in the morning, they saw that the place where sacrifices were made to Baal had been torn down and the idol of Ashera was no longer there. They also saw sacrifices had been made at that place and there were still things of sacrifice remaining.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “When the men of the city got up in the morning, look, they discovered that the altar of Baal had been destroyed and [that] the pillar of Ashera next to it had been broken and [that] Gideon had offered a bull as burnt offering on the altar he had built.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “In-the-morning, the people woke-up-(the-realization) that the altar of Baal was- already/now -ruined/destroyed, and the post/[lit. thing-like-pillar] of Ashera was- already -cut-into-pieces and it was now being-used-as-firewood for the (bull)/cow which was-offered on the new altar.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Early the next morning, as soon as the men got up, they saw that the altar to Baal had been torn down, and the pole for worshiping Astarte was gone. They saw that there was a new altar there, and on it was what remained from the bull they had sacrificed.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
