complete verse (2 Chronicles 36:17)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of 2 Chronicles 36:17:

  • Kupsabiny: “So, God sent the king of Babylon to fight against them. The soldiers of that king killed the young warriors of Judah in the Home of God. Those people had no mercy for any young man or woman. They killed them all whether an old man or a young boy. God gave all those people into the hands of the king of Babylon.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “That being the case, the LORD brought the king of Babylon to attack them. That king killed the young men of Judah inside the temple. He spared no one [lit.: left no remainder] — young men, old men women, not even the feeble ones. God gave them all into his hand.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “He had- those of/from-Babilonia -attack them. Those of/from-Babilonia killed their young men even in the temple. They do- not -have-compassion even to any anyone, man or woman, young or old, sickly or not. God handed-over his people to Nebuchadnezzar.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “He incited the king of Babylonia to attack Judah with his army. They killed the young men with their swords, even in the temple. They did not spare/pity anyone, young men or young women or old people. God enabled the army of Nebuchadnezzar to kill all of them.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
