    and they do not trust me God who is holy.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)

    and Israel has surrounded me with deceit.
    But Judah still obeys God’s commands
    and is still faithful to the holy God.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “The LORD still said, ‘I (am) always being-lied-to and being-deceived by those- (who) -come-from-Israel. Those- (who) -come-from-Juda continue to walk-away from me, the holy and faithful God.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Yahweh says, ‘The people of Israel have surrounded me with lies/constantly told lies to me.
    And the people of Judah have also turned/rebelled against me, their God,
    the Holy One who always does what I promise to do,
    and the people of Judah worship other gods.’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
