complete verse (Ezekiel 14:16)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Ezekiel 14:16:

  • Kupsabiny: “Since I am the God of power, even if those three people lived there, they would only be able to save themselves but unable to save their children. But the land would be left just like a desert.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Even were there still with them those three men, I, the Lord GOD who lives, swears that they will- never -save even their children but themselves only. And that-particular nation will-become desolate.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “as surely as I am alive, even if those three men were in that country, they could not save even their own sons or daughtersfrom being killed. Only those three would be saved/remain alive, and the country would become desolate. That is what I, Yahweh the Lord, declare.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
