Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Ezekiel 7:13:
- Kupsabiny: “No person shall be alive until he may get back the field that he has mortgaged because calamity/disaster will come to everybody. Not even one sinner shall remain.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “If there are still merchants who will be left they no-longer can-return to their business, for what I said about to what will-happen to the entire people of Israel will- no-longer -be-changed. Whoever does wickedness can- not -be-able to-save his life.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “People who buy things should not rejoicebecause of buying things very cheaply, and those who sell things should not be sadbecause they had to sell things cheaply, becauseYahweh will be punishing everyone. During the rest of their lives, people who sell some of their property will never be able to buy it back, because I, Yahweh, will never change my mind about what I have declared; because of your sins, I will destroy all of you people.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
