And on the seventh day, go (plur.) round that city seven times with those priests blowing signal horns/trumpets during all that time.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)

On the seventh day, you (plur.) go-around the city seven times, together-with the priests who are-causing- their trumpets/horns -to-be-sounded.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Tell seven priests to march around with them. Each priest must carry a trumpet. Four other priests must carry the sacred chest, and they must walk behind the priests who are carrying the trumpets. On the seventh day, the army must march around the city seven times, and the priests must be blowing the trumpets while they march.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
