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)
