Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Chronicles 9:8:
- Kupsabiny: “May your God be exalted who was happy with you so that he gave you to sit on a chair of rulership and rule in his name. He made you rule the people of Israel because he loved those people and he wanted to keep/guard them always. He did like that so that you guard/keep justice and righteousness.’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Newari: “Praise the LORD your God! Seeing you He rejoices greatly and having made you king He guides you, enabling [you] to reign in His name. He loves the Israelites and wants to protect them forever. So He has made you king of Israel to maintain justice and righteousness through you."” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “Praise be to the LORD your God, who is pleased with you and placed you in your throne to reign for him. Because of the love of your God to Israel and his desire to uphold this nation forever, he made you king of-it, so-that you will-do what is correct/right-(decision) and righteous to/for the people.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “Praise Yahweh your God, who has shown that he is pleased with you by appointing you to be the king of Israel for him. God has always loved the Israeli people, and desires to assist them forever, and therefore he has appointed you to be their king, in order that you will rule them fairly and righteously.’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
