Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 17:5:
- Kupsabiny: “God is saying,
‘Cursed is the person who has abandoned me God
and has entrusted himself to something else,
or rely on the power of mere men.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “The LORD still said, ‘I will-curse a man who turns-away from me and trusts on man alone.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “This is also what Yahweh says:
‘I will curse/condemn those who trust in human beings to help them,
those who rely on their own strength
and turn away from me.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
