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

  • Kupsabiny: “The people of Israel shall spread/set up their tents with each person being where the house/family of his father is at the flag of his clan. They shall set up their tents to surround and not come near my Tent.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “The Israelites must stay, each having set up their tents in their own places under their own family banners, all around the Tent of Meeting, a bit distant from it. ” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “‘Each tribe of Israel are-to-camp under the banner of their own/[lit. each] tribe. The Meeting-Together-Place Tent will-be-put/placed at the center of the camp.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “‘When the Israelis set up their tents, they should set them up in areas that surround the Sacred Tent, but not close to it. The people of each tribe must set up their tents in a different area. Each tribe must erect in that area a banner of their own clan and a flag that represents their tribe.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
