Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Ezekiel 12:25:
- Kupsabiny: “But I God shall speak the words that I speak and (they) shall be fulfilled soon. This word/matter will take place and never delay again. I shall do to you rebels what I have said that I shall do. It is I the God of power who has spoken,’ ’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “For when I, the LORD, speak it will- surely -happen. What I said against the rebellious people will- now -be-fulfilled very soon. This will happen in your time. I, the Lord GOD, (am) the-(one) saying this.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “Instead, I, Yahweh, will say what I want to tell the people, and what I predict will quickly happen. You rebellious people, I will cause to happen everything that I say will happen. That is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say.’ ’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
