Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 1 Samuel 20:21:

• Kupsabiny: “After that, I will send my servant to come and pick those arrows. And when you hear me telling that servant that, ‘The arrows are on my side,’ you will now that there is nothing bad. Then you come out from where you had hidden. I swear in the name of God that nothing will harm you.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Newari: “Then I will send a young man to look for it. I will speak to him like this, "Look, the arrows are to this side from the place where you are, go get them and bring them." When I have said that you can come out from the place where you are hiding." As surely as the LORD lives, I promise that nothing will happen to you. There is no need to worry.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “Then I will-have- a child -run and have- him -search for the arrows. If I say to him that the arrows (are) (there)-at his side, and he takes these and brings (them) to me, [you (sing.)] come-out. For I am-assuring you (sing.), in the presence of the living LORD, that there-is-no danger to-be-afraid-of.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “Then I will send a boy to bring the arrows back to me. If you hear me say to him, ‘They are closer to me’, then as surely as Yahweh lives, you will know that everything is fine, and that Saul will not kill you.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
