Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Genesis 10:5:
- Newari: “From these, the people who lived on the sea shore spread out. In this way the descendants of Japheth spread out, moving about to various places, [in various] language [groups], tribes and ethnic groups.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “These were the descendants of Jafet. They were the source of the people who lived in the places close to the sea and [on] islands. Every family of theirs were-living in their own place which-is under-the-jurisdiction of their nation, and they had their own language.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “Those sons and their families who were descended from Javan lived on the islands and on the land close to the Mediterranean Sea. Their descendants became tribes, each with its own language and clans and territory.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
