Your stems are wrong.  There are basically 7 stems in active, passive pairs:
 
qal niphal
piel pual
hiphil hopal
 
hithpael is middle verse.  There are some other odd stems like pilpal and polpal but they are rare and are the same as the piel pual.

Hello all,

Still waiting for an answer to how to translate the following forms, and 
if any are the same as the "big 7":
qal passive, pilel, tifil, polpal, hotpaal, hishtafel, and nitpael

Thanks in advance.
