Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Hosea 2:3:
- Kupsabiny: “If she does not do like that,
you shall remove her clothes to stand naked
like when she was born.
She shall become like a wilderness or be like a dry land.
where thirst will spear her.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “Otherwise I will make her as naked as on the day when she was born.
I will make her withered up and desolate like a wilderness,
and I will make her die of thirst.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “If she would- not indeed -stop I will-strip- her -naked and she will-become naked just-as when she (was) born. I will-make her like a desolate-place or desert, and she will-die in thirst.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
