Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Leviticus 14:17:
- Kupsabiny: “The priest shall take the oil that remains in his hand, and he is to smear it on the right ear of the person to be cleansed, (and) smear some on the big finger of the right hand and the big finger (toe) of the right foot where he had smeared the blood.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Newari: “With the oil remaining in the palm of his hand, the priest will apply a little oil to the patient’s right ear, to the thumb of [his] right hand, and to the big toe of his right foot on top of the blood of the guilt offering.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “Some of the oil on his palm he is-to-wipe on the parts of the body of the person who he had-wiped- blood -onto: on the bottom part of the right ear and on the big-digit(s) of his right hand and foot/(thumb of his right hand and big-toe of his right foot).” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “Then he must put some of the oil that is still in the palm of his hand on the lobe/tip of the right ear and the thumb of the right hand and on the big toe of the right foot of the person who has been healed of the skin disease. He must put it on top of the blood that he has already put on those places.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
