Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 28:2:
- Kupsabiny: “Listen, God has prepared a fierce person
who is powerful.
That person is like a hailstorm
that comes with a whirlwind.
(He) is fierce like a river
that has overflowed and broken the land.
(He) shall take/capture the city of Samaria
and throw it down/destroy it.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “The LORD has prepared someone very strong,
a powerful man, to attack them.
He will ruin the land like a whirlwind of hail, heavy rain,
and a flood which no one is able to restrain” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “Listen! The Lord has-prepared a strong and powerful nation which will-destroy Samaria. This is like a destructive storm/typhoon and rushing flood.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
