complete verse (Judges 20:13)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Judges 20:13:

  • Kupsabiny: “We are wanting those evil men in Gibeah for us to kill (them) so that we can sweep away this evil from Israel.’
    Although those people were told this, the people of Benjamin did not accept to listen to the words of the people of Israel.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Now give into our hands those evil men of Gibeah and we will kill them and remove the evil work from Israel."
    But the Benjaminites would not listen to the words of their Israelite brothers.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Now, hand-over to us the wicked ones who come-from-Gibea who did this so-that we would kill them so-that this wickedness will-be vanished from Israel.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Bring those wicked men to us, in order that we can execute them. By doing that, we will be doing what should be done because of this evil thing that has happened in Israel.’
    But the people of the tribe of Benjamin did not pay attention to their fellow Israelis.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
