Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 55:11:

  • Kupsabiny: “The word that I speak is like that.
    That word does not go/proceed in vain.
    But it fulfills what I want
    and it can do the things I had in mind for it.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “The word that comes out of my mouth is just like that.
    It will not come back fruitlessly to my place.
    But by it the work I intended [to do] will be brought to completion,
    and for the work for which I sent it, it will succeed.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
