Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 5:12:
- Kupsabiny: “Those people only think of feasts,
they spend all their time playing lyres and drinking wine,
but they do not know what God is doing.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “At their feasts they have harps lyres,
tambourines, flutes and wine.
But they do not think at all
about what the LORD is doing.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “In your (plur.) feasts/celebrations you (plur.) have bands and wines. But you (plur.) do- not -pay-attention to what the LORD is-doing.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
