complete verse (1 Kings 12:32)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 1 Kings 12:32:

  • Kupsabiny: “Jeroboam set aside the fifteenth day of the eighth month to become a feast day like the festive day in Judah. He also called the priests whom he had chosen to go to Bethel. But on the feast day which he had arranged, he went to Bethel. Then, he went up to the altar and burnt sweet-smelling things. Then, sacrifices were burnt to that idol which was worshipped.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “On the 15th day of the 8th month he established a festival to be observed like the festival in Judah with sacrifices on the altar. He offered blood sacrifices to the calves he had made in Bethel. And for the places to do puja that he himself had inaugurated on every hill, he also appointed priests in Bethel.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “He caused-to-have-a-feast also on the 15th day of the eight month, the same feast in Juda. On that day, he offered at Betel sacrifices on the altar for the golden calves that he had-made. And there he chose priests whom he will-placed at the places-of-worship that he had-made at the high places.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “He also appointed Adonijah and two priests, Elishama and Jehoram. They had a celebration at the end of October, like the celebration of Living in Temporary Shelters that occurred in Judah each year. On the altar that they built in Bethel, he offered sacrifices to the gold statues of calves that they had made, and he stationed the priests there at the shrines that his workers had built.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
