Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Amos 2:10:

and led you by hand through the wilderness for forty years
so that you could take for yourselves the land of the Amorites
to become yours.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “To give you the land of the Amorites,
I have brought you from the land of Egypt
and for forty years I led you through the wilderness.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “I also caused-to-come-out of Egipto the ancestors of those who-come-from-Israel, and for-a-period/[lit. inside] of 40 years I led them in the desert, so-that they could-take the land of the Amornon.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “I brought your ancestors out of Egypt,
and then I led them through the desert for 40 years.
