complete verse (Daniel 2:45)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Daniel 2:45:

  • Kupsabiny: “You saw the stone that uprooted itself from the hill side in a mysterious/amazing way and how it crushed that shaped thing (statue) made out of iron, bronze, clay, silver and gold. The God of authority has revealed to you what will happen in the days to come. I have truly narrated to you how your dreams were and what shall happen as I have shown to you.’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “You have seen the rock which broke loose from the mountain without having been touched by human hand by which the iron, bronze, clay, silver, and gold were pulverized. By that Great God has shown the King what all is about to take place.
    "The dream is sure and its meaning is trustworthy."” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Just as you (sing.) have-seen the rock which cut/chipped from the mountain (but was- not -cut by man) that smashed/crushed the statue of iron, bronze, clay, silver, and gold.
    ‘Beloved King, the powerful God has-shown you (sing.) what will-happen in the future. That was your (sing.) dream and its meaning. All that I said is very true.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “That is the meaning of the rock that something cut from the mountain, the rock that will crush to tiny bits the statue that is made of iron, bronze, silver, and gold.
    O king, the great God has shown you what will truly happen in the future. And you can trust what I told you about the meaning of the dream.’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
