Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 34:5:
- Kupsabiny: “God shall destroy the things of up
by way of his sword.
And when (he) has finished, (he) shall come to the people of Edom,
those whom he has decided to destroy.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “For my sword has come to appear in the sky.
Look! This is how the offspring of Edom will be judged.
I am about to devastate this nation.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “After the LORD has-finished-up using his sword in the heavens, it will-fall-upon/descend now on Edom, the people whom he will-destroy to punish them.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
