Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 40:27:
- Kupsabiny: “Please, people of Israel,
you who are the descendants of Jacob.
Why are you complaining saying,
¨God has abandoned us
while/so (he) does not see our troubles’?” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “O Jacob, why have you spoken like this? —
"The LORD does not understand my trouble.
Why, without even being concerned that I have endured injustice,
are you causing [me] to suffer?"” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “You (plur.) people of Israel the descendants of Jacob, why are- you (plur.) -complaining that your (plur.) plans and rights are-put-to-nothing by God?” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
