complete verse (Ezekiel 13:10)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Ezekiel 13:10:

  • Kupsabiny: “These people are leading my people astray. They are saying there is peace even though there is no peace. These people are like people who build a fragile wall and plaster it with white soil to do as if/pretend that it is strong even though it is not.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “‘These prophets are-causing-to-wander my people by saying that everything is fine, but (it is) indeed/[surprise particle] not good/fine. As-if just like that the people are-building a frail stone-wall, and the prophets just plastered it with mixture of lime and mud.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “They deceive my people, saying ‘Things will go well for us,’ when things will not go well. It as though the people have built a shaky/weak wall, and the prophets cover it with whitewash/white paint to make people think that it is a very strong wall.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
