Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 1 Samuel 26:20:

• Kupsabiny: “Don’t let me die in a foreign land where God is not near. Why does the king of Israel look for a mere jigger/flea like me like when one is throwing stones at a bird?’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Newari: “Do not cause me to be killed far from the presence of [lit.: before] the LORD, for like a person going to the hills in pursuit of a pheasant, the king of Israel has come to search for a flea."” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “Do- not -allow me to-die in other lands, which (are) far from the LORD. Why are- you (sing.) the king of Israel -pursuing/persecuting me I (am) just like a flea? Why do- you (sing.) -chase/pursue me like a bird in a mountain/hill?’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “Now do not force me to die far from where we worship Yahweh. You, the king of Israel, have come here searching for me. But I do not want to harm you! I am as harmless as a flea. You are searching for me like people hunt for a bird in the mountains! ’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
