Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 10:2:
- Kupsabiny: “He is saying,
‘Do not learn the habits of other communities,
or let things that appear in the sky frighten you.
Even though those things frighten other communities.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “He says, ‘You (plur.) do- not -follow the way of the other nations. They/[lit. these they] are afraid of the signs in heaven. But you (plur.) on-the-other-hand, do- not -be-afraid of these signs.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “‘Do not act like the people of other nations act,
and do not be terrified by strange/unusual things that you see in the sky,
even though they cause the people of other nations to be terrified.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
