Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Ecclesiastes 5:16:

• Kupsabiny: “That is a painful thing. A person returns empty like he came into the world. We worry just chasing after wind and there is nothing (we get).” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Newari: “This is also a terrible thing that happens at the time of suffering.
  Just as a person has come, in the very same way he must go back.
  What benefit will there be for him?
  For the pain of the hard labor he has done is all as useless as the wind.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “This is not very good! We (incl.) will-die bringing nothing like when we (incl.) were born. So what can we (incl.) get from our (incl.) hard-work that has no value?” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “That also seems senseless.
  People bring nothing into the world when they are born,
  and they leave this world taking nothing with them.
  They have worked hard,
  but they receive no lasting benefit.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
