complete verse (Isaiah 28:28)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 28:28:

  • Kupsabiny: “Although wheat is threshed
    it is not threshed forever.
    Carts are driven over wheat to break (them/it)
    and it is not done so that they break into pieces.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “For making bread, wheat flour must be crushed,
    one does not go threshing it.
    And large cartwheels may be rolled over it,
    no one uses horses to grind grain.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “The grain which is being-made into bread can- easily -be-crushed, therefore he does -not -constantly thresh (it). He use cart with horses for threshing, but he makes sure that it will- not -be-crush.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “And grain for baking bread is crushed easily,
    so the farmers do not continue to pound it for a long time.
    They sometimes cause their horses to pull a cart over it to thresh it,
    but doing that does not grind the grain.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
