complete verse (Isaiah 49:18)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 49:18:

  • Kupsabiny: “Please you (sing.) look everywhere,
    all your people are gathering to come home.
    I have told you truly
    your people shall become a good thing
    where you are.
    You shall rejoice over those people like
    a bride rejoices while dressing in something beautiful.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Setting your eyes, look all around.
    All your children are gathering to come to your place.
    I, the LORD Almighty say like this,
    As surely as I am the living one,
    you will wear them all as ornaments;
    you will decorate them on, like a bride.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Look-at your (sing.) surrounding, your (sing.) people are-gathering now and coming-near to you (sing.). I, the living LORD, is-swearing that you (sing.) will-boast them like the boasting of a woman who is getting-married of the jewelries that she is-wearing.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “You will look around and see
    all of your children coming back to you.
    As surely as I live,
    they will be around you for you to show to people
    like a bride shows her wedding ornaments!” (Source: Translation for Translators)
