Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Zechariah 7:7:

• Kupsabiny: “These matters/words are what God already/earlier said through his prophets of before. Then there were many people in Jerusalem at that time and there was peace. And again, (people) lived in the cities that were near Jerusalem in the province of Negev and in the ridges of the West.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Newari: “Isn’t this what the Lord said through the earlier prophets? When Jerusalem was developed and populated by many people. Many people settled in the small towns around it as well as in the Negeb to the south and the lowlands of the west".” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “This-is(particularly) what the message that I told the prophets to proclaim/tell long ago, the time when Jerusalem was- still -prosperous and there-were many people including the towns around in it, and including Negev and Shefela.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “That is certainly what I continually told the former prophets to proclaim to the people, when Jerusalem and the nearby towns were prosperous and filled with people, and people also lived in the desert area to the south and in the foothills to the west.’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
