  • Kupsabiny: “God says,
    ‘The sin of these people started at Gilgal
    and that was where I began to hate them.
    And because they did acts of sin.
    I shall chase them away from my land.
    I no longer love/accept those people.
    because their leaders have all become stubborn and refused my words.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “I hated them because of all the bad,
    evil work that they did in Gilgal.
    By reason of their bad,
    evil work I will drive them out of my temple.
    I will love them no more.
    All their leaders have become rebellious. ” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “The LORD said, ‘All the wickedness of my people started at Gilgal. There already I hated them. And because of their wickedness I will-drive- them -away from Israel which I consider my dwelling-place. I no-longer love them; all their leaders rebelled-against me.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Yahweh says, ‘Because of all the wicked things that my people did at Gilgal,
    that is where I started to hate them.
    And now, because of all the sinful things that they have done,
    I will expel them from my country.
    I will not love them any longer;
    all their leaders rebel against me.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
