Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 34:9:
- Kupsabiny: “The rivers of Edom shall be like
an ocean of bee’s wax.
Its soil shall become a glowing fire
and that ocean shall set fire to that land.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “The rivers of Edom [will change] to tar,
the dust on the earth will change to sulfur,
and their land will burn like tar.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “The streams in Edom will-become a tar and the land will-become a sulfur. The whole nation will-become a blazing tar.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
