complete verse (Jeremiah 1:12)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 1:12:

  • Kupsabiny: “God said to me, ‘True because I am prepared to see that my word is fulfilled.’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “The LORD said, ‘What you (sing.) have-seen is right, and that means that I am-watching that my word will-be-fulfilled.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Yahweh said, ‘That is correct. And because the word for ‘almond’ resembles the word for ‘watching’, it means that I am watching what will happen, and I will make certain that what I have said to you about destroying nations will happen.’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
