complete verse (Isaiah 59:10)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 59:10:

  • Kupsabiny: “We grope only
    like blind people who follow a wall
    We grope like people who have no eyes.
    We stumbled in the day like it was night.
    We are like people who have died
    in the middle of the living.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Like blind people we go on groping in the dark along the wall.
    Like those who do not have eyes, we go on seeking our path.
    Even at midday we stumble like in the evening.
    Among the very strong ones, we have become like dead ones.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “We (incl.) grope like blind, and stumble even at noonday as-if we (incl.) are-walking in darkness. We (incl.) are also like corpses when compare with the strong men.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
