Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Chronicles 30:2:

- Newari: “The king, his courtiers and the people of Jerusalem decided to celebrate the Passover festival in the 2nd month.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “King Hezekia and his officials had-decided, and all the community/people of Jerusalem, to celebrate the Feast of the Passing-by of the Angels on the second month.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “The king and his officials and all the other people who had gathered in Jerusalem wanted to celebrate the Passover Festival. But they were not able to celebrate it at the usual time, because many of the priests had still not performed the rituals to purify themselves; therefore they were not allowed to do serve in the festival. Also, everyone had still not come to Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover. So they decided to celebrate it one month later than usual.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
