Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 63:5:
- Kupsabiny: “I looked around and no one to help me appeared
I opened the eyes wide and no one helped me.
But I defeated (them) in my power alone
and my anger gave me strength until I won.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “I looked, but [I] did not see anyone who would help.
I did not see anyone who would help, [and] I was amazed,
So with my own strong arm [I] did my salvation,
and my anger sustained me.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “I was-appalled when I saw that there was not even one who helped- me -out. Therefore I was the only one who saved my people by-means of my power. My anger was the one that pushed me to punish my enemies.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
