Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Hosea 2:8:
- Kupsabiny: “(She) did not understand that it was me who gave her wheat,
wine and oil,
or the silver and gold
that she used to go and give to Baal.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “She never admitted that I was the one
who gave her grain, new wine and olive oil
and who gave her much silver and gold,
that they used to do worship to the god Baal.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “She does- not -think that I was- the -one-who-gave her grains, wine/[lit. juice of grapes], oil, and many silver and gold which they made into an image of Baal.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
