Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 10:16:
- Kupsabiny: “Those idols are not like the God of Jacob,
because he is the one who created everything,
including Israel that nation of his.
And his name is the God of power.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “But the God of Jacob is not like that. He is- the -one-who- made all things, including Israel, the people whom he possesses. LORD Almighty is his name.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “But the God whom we Israelis worship is not like those idols;
he is the one who created everything that exists;
we, the tribe/people of Israel, belong to him;
he is the Commander of the armies of angels.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
