complete verse (Numbers 4:19)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Numbers 4:19:

  • Kupsabiny: “Do not let the people from that house of Kohath die by coming close to the things that are honored. In order to prevent these things from happening, Aaron and his sons must put/assign it to each person what he is to carry.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “So that they may live and not die when they come near the most holy items Aaron and his sons are to show them the work they must do and the items they are to carry when they come to the place where the most holy items are.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “This is what you (plur.) should do so they will- not -die if they approach/come-near to the most holy things: Aaron and his sons/children will-accompany them when they enter the Tent and they will-talk to them what they should do and what they should carry/bring.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “‘When the descendants of Kohath approach the sacred items in the Sacred Tent to take them to another location, Aaron and his sons must always go in with them and show each of them what work to do and what things to carry. But the descendants of Kohath must not enter the Sacred Tent at any other time and look at the things that are in it. If they do that, I will get rid of all the descendants of Kohath.’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
