Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Genesis 30:42:

• Newari: “Branch splinters like that would not be put in front of the weak ones. In this way the strong cattle became Jacob’s, and the weak cattle became Laban’s.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “But if the weak animals which (were) the-(ones) mating, he did- not -place the branches. Therefore the weak ones belonged to Laban and the healthy/[lit. good] of body ones belonged to Jacob.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “But when weak animals were ready to mate, he did not put the branches in their troughs. So the weak ones became part of Laban’s flock, and the strong ones became part of Jacob’s flock.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
