The Greek that is translated in various ways in English but typically something like “you husbands should live with your wives in an understanding way, since they are weaker than you” is translated into Eastern Arrernte as “each one of you are to be thinking correctly about the love that belongs to married people. Remember that your wife is not physically strong like you are.”
The Greek that is translated as “human institution” or “human authority” in many English versions is translated into Eastern Arrernte as “all good laws.”
The Hebrew that is translated as “worthless” or “wicked” in many English versions is translated into Anuak as “whose head is bad” (1Sam. 25:17) or “people whose intentions are black” (i.e., greedy) (1Sam. 30:22).
The Hebrew that is translated as “beautiful eyes” in many English versions is translated into Anuak as “white eyes” (i.e. “big” eyes). Red eyes or small eyes are not considered to be attractive.
