cattle, livestock

The Hebrew that is translated in English as “livestock” (or “cattle”) is translated in Newari as “living beings brought up in a house” or “living beings cared for in a house” (Source: Newari Back Translation)

In Kwere it is “animals that are being kept.” (Source: Pioneer Bible Translators, project-specific translation notes in Paratext)

Translation commentary on Deuteronomy 11:15

Grass in your fields for your cattle: the animals include cows, goats, and sheep. See 2.35.

You shall eat and be full: they will always have enough, and more than enough, to eat. They will never go hungry.
