complete verse (Isaiah 36:7)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 36:7:

  • Kupsabiny: “I know that you might say, ‘We trust in our God.’ But is this not the God whom you insulted? Are you not the one who tore down where it is raised and where sacrifices were made to God and you told the people of Judah and Jerusalem that sacrifices to God should be made here.’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “And if you tell me, "We have taken [our] confidence [from] the LORD our God." What! Aren’t these the same Puja places and altars which Hezekiah removed, speaking to Judah and Jerusalem in this way? — "You must worship before this altar."” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “But you (sing.) might say to me that you (plur.) rely on the LORD your (plur.) God. But it is not so that you (sing.) indeed caused-to-be-destroyed its places-of-worship on the high places including its altars, and you (sing.) told the ones-who-came-from-Juha and who-came-from-Jerusalem that they should worship in just one altar?’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
