Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Chronicles 10:16:

  • Kupsabiny: “When the people of the country of Israel of North had realized that Rehoboam did not listen to them, they said, ‘We shall not accept anything that originates from the house/family of David. Let us return to our homes. You can rule your own house only, son of David.’ So, the people of the land of Israel of North returned to their homes.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Seeing that the king did not listen to their concern, standing up and screaming, the people cried out,
    "What is our part in the family of David?
    Do we have any share in the son of Jesse?
    Go to your own tents, Oh Israel.
    Take care of your own house, Oh David!"” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “When the Israelinhon realized that the king did- not -listen to them, they said to the king, ‘We (excl.) do- not -have-anything-to-do with you descendant of David! You take-care/[lit. (It is) now up to you to take-care] of your kingdom! [You (plur.)] come Israelinhon, let- us (incl.) -go-home!’ So the Israelinhon went-home.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “When the Israeli leaders realized that the king did not pay any attention to what they said, they shouted,
    ‘We do not want anything to do with this descendant of King David!
    We will not pay attention to what this grandson of Jesse says!
    You people of Israel, let’s go home!
    As for this descendant of David, he can rule his own kingdom!’
    So the Israeli leaders returned to their homes.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
