complete verse (Isaiah 57:15)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 57:15:

  • Kupsabiny: “This is what the God who is in heaven/up says,
    he whose name is righteous and who lives forever.
    ‘I live up where it is holy.
    I live with people who repent
    and humble themselves.
    I strengthen those people who humble themselves
    and I give power to those people who repent.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “For the one who lives forever,
    who is worthy to be greatly honored, whose name is holy,
    he says, "I, the most high, I live in a high and holy place,
    but I also live with those who are penitent and humble,
    and I will strengthen you with a humble spirit,
    and [I] will also strengthen your repentant heart.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “This is still what the Most High God, the Holy God who lives without end says: ‘I live/dwell in the high and holy place, but I also live/dwell with the people who are humble and repentant, so-that I could strengthen them.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
