complete verse (Numbers 6:12)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Numbers 6:12:

  • Kupsabiny: “and dedicate self to God again. He shall bring a ram which has one year so his sin can be appeased. The days he had dedicated self are not counted since he made a mistake.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “He must dedicate himself to the LORD for as long as he consecrates himself as a Nazarite, and he must bring a one-year-old sacrificial lamb to offer as a guilt offering. Since the earlier days became impure, they will not count.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “The days that passed of his serving the LORD will- not -be-counted as part of his fulfilling his vow, because he was-defiled by touching a corpse. He must dedicate himself again until he finished his vow, and he must bring a male lamb as a payment for his sin.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “The amount of time that you were set apart for me the previous time does not count, because you had become unacceptable to me by coming close to a corpse during the time that you were a Nazir-man. So you must again make a solemn promise to dedicate yourself to me for the entire amount of time that you indicated the previous time. And you must also sacrifice a one-year-old lamb for not doing what you were required to do.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
