complete verse (Isaiah 45:21)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 45:21:

  • Kupsabiny: “Arrange/prepare your words to be heard
    and ask one another.
    Who has said beforehand long ago what would happen?
    Is it not me, God?
    There is no God except me,
    a God who is righteous and who saves you.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Now talk about what is about to happen,
    Take counsel among yourselves.
    Who told you [of] this matter many years ago?
    Who has told you in the distant past?
    What! Was it not I, the LORD?
    Besides me, there are no other God.
    A righteous and savior God,
    besides me, there is no other.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “You (plur.) consult-each-other, and reveal/present your (plur.) case. Who foretold/predicted before the things that will-happen? Is it not I, the LORD? There is no other God but I alone — the righteous God and Savior.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
