complete verse (1 Kings 7:49)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 1 Kings 7:49:

  • Kupsabiny: “Solomon said that the household items for the House of God were to be decorated/beautified with gold. These are those things: altar, the table for offering bread, the things for placing candles, five of these things were placed on the right hand side and the other five were put on the left hand side in front of the most holy place of the house of God, flowers, candles together with scissors for trimming wicks and tongs for handling wicks. But others which Solomon did in that same way are: basins, bowls, plates, and pans for scooping fire. Others are the door-hinges of the holy of holies and those for the common room in the house of God.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “the lampstands of fine gold, five to the right and five to the left in front of Most Holy Place,
    flowers of gold, lamps and tongs,” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “the places-to-put the lamp that is pure gold that stands in front of the Most Holy Place (five at the right side and five at the left);
    the golden flowers, lamps, and things-for-catching;” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “the ten lampstands that were put in front of the Very Holy Place, five on the south side and five on the north side;
    the decorations that resembled flowers;
    the lamps;
    the tongs to grasp the hot coals;” (Source: Translation for Translators)
