complete verse (Numbers 23:9)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Numbers 23:9:

  • Kupsabiny: “I see those people at a distance from the top of a rock,
    I see them while I am on a hill.
    I see a community set aside for God
    and different from other nations.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “I see them from a great rock, from a peak,
    I watch them from a high mountain top.
    They (emph.) are a nation that lives separately.
    They tend to consider themselves as separate from others.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “When I was there on the top of the mountains, I saw them. They live just by-themselves, who were-separated from other nations.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “I have seen them from the tops of the rocky peaks.
    I see that they are a group of people who live by themselves;
    they have separated themselves from other nations.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
