Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Nehemiah 13:1:
- Kupsabiny: “But on that day, when the Book of Moses was being read, writings were found which said that there are no people from Amon or of Moab who are allowed to join/mix together with the people of God.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “When Moises read the Law to the people that day, they have-discovered that the Amomonite and Moabnon were-forbidden to join the community of God.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “On that day, when someone read to the people parts of the laws that God gave to Moses, they read where it was written that no one from the Ammon people-group or the Moab people-group was ever to be allowed to be with God’s people while they were gathered together to worship.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
