complete verse (Leviticus 13:28)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Leviticus 13:28:

  • Kupsabiny: “If (it) has not spread and it is pink/purple, the burned area is just a scar. The priest must say that the person is clean because it is just a scar.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “If that scar, only swells, [and] without spreading stays right there and dries up, it is a scar from scorching by fire. The priest must declare that person clean.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “But if this has- not -spread and seems healed/to-have-formed-skin-over already, this (is) only a swelling that started from the burn. And the priest will-let-it-be-known/will-pronounce that he is clean.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “However, if the spot is not changed and has not spread but has faded, it is only a scar from the burn, and the priest will declare that the person is permitted to be with other people again.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
