complete verse (Leviticus 8:20)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Leviticus 8:20:

  • Kupsabiny: “He cut that ram into pieces and took all the things of the stomach and the legs and washed them and then he burned it all. He took the head and the meat which he had mixed with the fat and he burned it on the altar to become something that gave out a sweet smell to God. Those sacrifices became something to be offered to God through fire following like God had told Moses.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “He cut the flesh of the ram into pieces and burned it along with the head and the fat.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “He cut- the animal -in-pieces and burnt the head, the fat[s] and (some)-other parts of the animal. He washed the parts inside the stomach and the legs. He burnt on the altar all the parts of the animal as a burnt offering. The aroma/fragrance of this offering is-able-to-cause- the LORD -to-be-glad/to-be-pleased. Moises did this according-to what- the LORD -commanded him.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
