complete verse (Isaiah 24:20)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 24:20:

  • Kupsabiny: β€œThe land/earth shall stagger like a drunkard,
    and sway like a hut/shelter which the wind blows on.
    Sins are pulling down the land,
    it shall be destroyed never to rise again.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: β€œThe earth moves like a drunkard staggers going down the road,
    and like a shelter shakes [when] a whirlwind comes.
    And the guilt of their own rebellion they have committed
    is like a great heavy load that is impossible to lift
    because of which [they] have fallen down and will never be able to get up [again].” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: β€œAs-if-like it will-stagger like a drunkard. It will-shake like a small-hut being-blown by the wind. It will-be-over-loaded because of sin, and (it) will-be-destroyed and no-longer can-rise-up again.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
