  • Newari: “But he country of Egypt will be in desolation
    and Edom will be turned into a desert where no plant will grow,
    because of the atrocities they have done to the people living in Judah,
    because they shed innocent blood.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “‘Egipto will-become a desolate place and Edom will-become a desert because they treated- the people of Juda -with-great-harshness/cruelty; they have-killed the innocent ones.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)

    and killed many people who had not done anything that was wrong.
    So now those countries will become deserts,” (Source: Translation for Translators)
