Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Micah 7:8:
- Kupsabiny: “Do not rejoice, oh, my enemies,
when things happen to me.
Even if I have fallen
I shall get up again.
Even though I am in darkness,
God is my light.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “Oh, my enemy, do not sneer at me and rejoice.
Though I have fallen down, I will stand again.
Though I sit in darkness,
the LORD will be my light” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “The Israelinhon said, ‘Our (incl.) enemies should not mock us (incl.). For even we (incl.) had-been-destroyed let us (incl.) rise-up again. And even though we (incl.) are in darkness the LORD is our (incl.) light.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
