Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Ezekiel 38:16:

  • Kupsabiny: “You (plur.) will swarm around my people of Israel until you darken (them) like a swarm of grasshoppers that have closed off the land. I will cause you, oh, Gog, to raid my land so that the other communities can then know that I am righteous.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “You will-attack my people who are Israelinhon like a cloud that will-engulf them. Yes, Gog, I will-have- you -attack my land in the future. Through what I am-going-to-do with you, I can-show my holiness to the nations. Then they will-know that I am the LORD.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “You will march toward my Israeli people, and your soldiers will cover the land like a huge cloud. Gog, I will bring your army to attack the country that belongs to me, but what I do for you will show the people of other nations that I am holy.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
