complete verse (Judges 11:18)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Judges 11:18:

  • Kupsabiny: “Then, the people of Israel went ahead and crossed the wilderness going round the country of Edom and Moab, and they went to set up their tents on the other side of the river Arnon. They did not enter the country of Moab, because the border of Moab was at the river Arnon.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “After that they went by way of the desert and going along the borders of Edom and Moab, they went to the east of Moab and pitched camp on the other side of the Arnon. Because the Arnon river was the boundary of Moab they did not come into the country of Moab. ” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “‘Sometime later, they continued to journey in the desert. They went-throughout Edom and Moab until they arrived in the east of Moab on the other-side of Arnon place-where-the-water-flows. There they camped, but they did- not -cross-over Arnon because that was the boundary of Moab.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Then the Israelis went into the desert and walked outside the borders of the Edom and Moab regions. They walked east of the Moab region, east of the Arnon River, which is the eastern border of the Moab region. They did not cross that river to enter the Moab region.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
