complete verse (Ezekiel 13:14)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Ezekiel 13:14:

  • Kupsabiny: “I shall destroy that wall that you smeared white soil on completely! That wall shall fall on you to crash you completely. Then you shall know that I am God.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Yes, I will-have- the stone-wall that you had-plastered with a mixture of lime and mud -fall. I will- really -have (the stone-wall) -fall until its foundations come-out/appear. And when it has- now -fallen, you (plur.) will-be-crushed and will-die. Then you will-know that I am the LORD.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “The false prophecies of your prophets are like a wall that they have covered with whitewash, but I will break it down, and shatter it down to the ground, with the result that people can see its foundations. When the wall collapses, you also will be killed, and everyone will know that I, Yahweh, have the power to do what I say that I will do.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
