Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Hosea 7:5:
- Kupsabiny: “When there is a feast of the king,
the leaders drink until the beer makes them unable to walk.
Then that king agrees/joins with rebellious/arrogant people.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “On the festival day of our king,
the princes get very drunk with wine.
He shakes hands with those who mock him.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “On the birthday of their king, they made-drunk his officers. And even the king also drank with his foolish officers.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “The king and his officials get very drunk during their festivals,
carousing with others who also do foolish things.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
