Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Numbers 11:26:

  • Kupsabiny: “There were two people among those seventy people who had remained inside the camp who had not gone to that Tent of God. One was called Eldad, and the other was Medad. That Spirit fell on those people so that they also prophesied in the power of God while being inside the camp.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Two men, named Eldad and Medad having also been included in the list of elders happened to have stayed in camp, they had not gone out to the Tent of Meeting, where all elders were gathered. Though it was like that, the Spirit also went to come upon them, and they prophesied inside the camp.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “The two men/persons who (were) Eldad and Medad who were-listed with the 70 rulers did- not -go to the Tent but-rather they remained/stayed in the camp. But they also have-received the authority and they also spoke there in the camp.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Two of the leaders whom Moses/I appointed, Eldad and Medad, were not there when the rest of them gathered together. They had not left their tents to go and stand around the Sacred Tent. But Yahweh’s Spirit came on them also, and they started to prophesy/speak messages from Yahweh.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
