complete verse (Numbers 19:19)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Numbers 19:19:

  • Kupsabiny: “The person who is clean is to sprinkle the one who is unclean on the third day and the seventh. The person who is being cleansed is to wash his clothes and bathe himself, and when it reaches the evening of that day he is seen to have become clean.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “A clean person must sprinkle that water on the unclean person on the third day and on the seventh day. On the 7th day he must make the unclean person clean. Then the one who became clean must wash his clothes and bathe, and at sundown he will be clean.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “On the third and seventh day, a man who is-considered clean is-to-sprinkle the man who is unclean/dirty. And on the seventh day, the man who was-been-cleansed he must wash his clothes and take-a-bath, and at dusk he is- now -considered clean.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “On the third day and on the seventh day after that, the person who is acceptable to me must sprinkle some of that water on those who have become unacceptable to me. On the seventh day, the people who are performing that ritual to become acceptable to me again must wash their clothes and bathe. If they do that, on that evening they will become acceptable to me again.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
