Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Ezekiel 36:38:

  • Kupsabiny: “People shall fill up every city that is now in ruins like the sheep, those that were given out as sacrifices, used to be many in Jerusalem before. Then they shall know that I am God.’ ’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “The Lord GOD still continued to say, ‘I will-listen again the asking-for-pity of the people of Israel, and this is what I am doing to do with them: I will-cause- them -to-become-many as many as the sheep being-offered in Jerusalem in times of feast. Therefore the towns that were-ruined will- now -be-inhabited by many people. Then they will-know that I am the LORD.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “as numerous as the flocks of sheep that will be needed for offerings in Jerusalem during your regular festivals. The cities that are now ruined will be filled with people, and then you will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, have the power to do what I say that I will do.’’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
