complete verse (Hosea 3:4)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Hosea 3:4:

  • Kupsabiny: “That is how it is with the people of Israel. They shall stay for many days not having a king or leader. They shall stay without sacrifices or a place where sacrifices can be made, or ceremonial clothes, or idols to be worshipped.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “In this way the Israelites will live for many days without a king or prince, without sacrifices or worship stone pillars, without ephod or houshold gods.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “For this means that for a long time the people of Israel will-live without a king, officer, offering, remembrance stone, special cloth which is-used for guessing/practice divination, and little-gods/false-gods.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “This is what will show that for-a-long-time in-the-future there-will-be-no king or leader of the Israelita. For-a-long-time also they will stop sacrificing/offering and the stones that they repeatedly-set-up-vertically as- their -place-of-worship will-cease-to-exist. What they use to predict/divine and images/idols in their houses will also cease-to-exist.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • English: “Our doing that will show that in the same way, the people of Israel will not have a king and other leaders for many years. They will not offer sacrifices or have sacred stone pillars, no sacred vest for the Supreme Priest, and no idols!” (Source: Translation for Translators)
