Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Hosea 2:18:
- Kupsabiny: “On that day I shall made a covenant with the wild animals, the birds and animals that crawl on the ground so that they do not spoil my people. I shall remove all the weapons of war, swords and arrows shall leave the land so that my people can live in the land in peace.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Newari: “That day I will make a covenant for them,
with the wild animals, the birds of sky
and with the animals that crawl on the ground.
I will remove far from the land the bows and arrows,
the swords and war
so that all may live securely.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “At that time I will-make an agreement with all kinds of animals that they will- not -harm you (plur.). I will-vanish from the land of Israel the weapons of war like the bow-and-arrow and sword. And because there is no more war, you (plur.) will-sleep with no fear of a disaster.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
