Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Ezekiel 9:6:

  • Kupsabiny: “Slaughter elders, young men, young girls, women and children. But do not disturb any person who has a mark. Begin at my House.’ So, (they) began with the elders who were in front of the House of God.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “You (plur.) kill the old-ones, young men and women, mothers, and children, but do- not -harm the ones- who -have the mark. You start/begin at my temple.’ Therefore they first killed the ones-who-rule who are-there before the temple.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Slaughter old men, young men and women, older women and children, but do not harm any of those who have that mark on their forehead. Start at my temple.’ So they began by killing the elders who were worshiping idols in front of the temple.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
