Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 51:26:
- Kupsabiny: “Never shall a center post appear from you
nor one that is dug out for making the foundation of a house
because you have become a deserted place forever.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “No stone ever will-be-taken from you to be used to build a building. You will-become desolate without end. I, the LORD, (am) the-(one) saying this.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “Your city will be abandoned forever;
even the stones in your city will never again be used for buildings.
Your city will be completely destroyed.’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
