Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Genesis 14:10:
- Newari: “Because there were tar pits from place to place there in the Siddim Valley, when the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah ran away, some of their people fell down into the tar pits, [and] the rest just ran off toward the hills.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “Now, the Valley of Sidim had many holes where asphalt was-being-taken-out. And when the king of Sodom and Gomora together with their men fled, some fell-down into the holes, and others were-able-to-flee to the mountains.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “The Siddim Valley was full of tar pits. So when the armies of the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah tried to run away, many of the men fell into the tar pits. The others escaped and ran away to the hills.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
