Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Nehemiah 2:2:

• Kupsabiny: “Then suddenly, the king asked me, ‘You are not sick, are you, but you look like a person having very heavy problems.’ There, I became so afraid/ terrified.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “So he asked me, ‘Why are you (sing.) sad that you (sing.) do not even have a sickness? Maybe you (sing.) have a problem.’ I was very much afraid,” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “so he asked me saying, ‘Why are you (sing.) sad and you (sing.) are definitely not sick? Perhaps there-is a reason-for-your(sing.)-mourning.’
  Extreme was my fear,” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• English: “So he asked me, ‘Why are you sad? I know that you are not sick. It must be that you are troubled about something.’ Then I was very afraid, because it was not proper to be sad when I came to the king (OR, because I was worried what the king would do to me if he refused to do what I was about to request him to do).” (Source: Translation for Translators)
