Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Numbers 35:33:

• Kupsabiny: “Do not destroy the land where you live because blood destroys the land and there is nothing that can be used to cleanse the country on account of blood that has been spilled. It is only the blood of the person who killed (somebody) that is able to cleanse the land.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Newari: “’Do not make the place where you live unclean. Blood makes the land unclean. To make atonement for blood, the payment must be the blood that is caused to come from that man. ” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “In this way the defiling of the land which you (plur.) dwell-on/upon can-be-avoided, for the killing defiles the land. And no one can-clean it except for the death of the one-who-killed.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “‘You must execute people who truly murder others. If you did not do that, you would be causing the people who live in the land to become unacceptable to me. Anyone who deliberately kills an innocent person must be executed.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
