complete verse (Isaiah 59:16)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 59:16:

  • Kupsabiny: “He saw that no one would rescue people
    and was surprised because no one intervened.
    So, he will use this strength
    to save them getting victory.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “The LORD did not see anyone at all who would help the oppressed ones.
    And in seeing that not even a single [person] among [them] would intercede [lit.: make requests], he was amazed.
    After that he saved them with his right arm,
    and he delivered them by his righteousness.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “He was surprised of what he saw that there was not even one who helped-out the ones-who-oppressed. Therefore by-means of his power he saved them, and his righteousness has-helped him.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
