complete verse (Deuteronomy 32:11)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Deuteronomy 32:11:

  • Kupsabiny: “He taught you (plur.) and guarded you so that you did not fall down,
    like an eagle that teaches its children.
    (He) spreads his wings and hold you when you throw yourself down.
    He carries those children on his wings.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Like an eagle who, having shaken the nest,
    hovers in the wind above her young,
    He [God] carries them, spreading out his wings,
    takes them up on his wings.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “He guarded them like an eagle who guards his chicks while he teaches them to fly.
    He spread-out his wings to catch and carry them.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Yahweh protected his people just like an eagle encourages its babies to fly
    and flutters over them ,
    spreading its wings and catching them if they start to fall.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
