Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 46:11:
- Kupsabiny: “Go now to Gilead to look for your medicine plants
you people of Egypt.
You have gone around looking for medicine for a long time
and it has not helped you at all.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “‘O people of Egipto, even if you go to Gilead to look for medicines, all your medicines are- worthless and can- not -heal you (plur.).” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “You people of Egypt,
go up to the Gilead region to obtain medicine;
but it will be useless to take all those medicines;
you will not be healed.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
