complete verse (Amos 4:7)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Amos 4:7:

  • Kupsabiny: “And again, I withheld rain
    when only three months remained before the harvest was ready.
    I made it rain in one city
    and there was no rain in another.
    It rained in one field
    but crops were drying up in another.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “I stopped the rain in your place
    three months before the harvest.
    I sent rain in one city
    and I withheld rain from another city.
    One field had rain
    and another field had none and dried up.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “‘I was- the -one-who-withheld the rain three months before the harvest-time/season comes. I caused-to-rain in some towns but not on-the-other-hand in others. I caused-to-rain in some fields but others on-the-other-hand became-dry.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
