Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 24:20:
- Kupsabiny: βThe 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.β (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: βThe 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].β (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: βAs-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.β (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
