complete verse (Jeremiah 2:24)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 2:24:

  • Kupsabiny: “You are like donkeys (wild donkeys) in the desert,
    who sniff in the wind wanting a bull/male.
    Who can prevent/block (her/them) when she/they are in heat/looking for a male/bull.
    Bulls who want to climb (it/her) do not worry
    because they will find that young female when her days have arrived.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “You (plur.) are also like a wild female donkey who is anxious/excited for she really wanting to-mate. When she is-in-heat no one can-stop her. A male donkey no longer have a hard time looking for her during the time of-mating.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
