Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Joel 1:20:
- Kupsabiny: “The animals of the bush also cry to you
because the rivers are dry
and the pasture is destroyed.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “Wild animals also seek help from you,
The streams have totally dried up;
fire has destroyed the pastures of the wilderness.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “Even the animals in the open-fields are-waiting for your (sing.) help, for the rivers and the streams (are) now very dry, and the grazing-areas/fields have-withered as-if devoured by fire.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
