complete verse (Isaiah 5:4)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 5:4:

  • Kupsabiny: “But is there anything more/again
    that I have not done for my field?
    I thought that it would produce good food/fruits
    and then I got bitter ones.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “What is there that
    I have not done for my vineyard?
    I had hoped for good grapes.
    Why does it only bear bad grapes?” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “What I have-forgotten to do for my field? I waited/[lit. caused-to-arrive] that it/this will-bear/yield sweet-(fruit), but it yielded/fruited sour-(fruit).” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
