complete verse (Jeremiah 15:20)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 15:20:

  • Kupsabiny: “I will make you a wall for these people
    a strong wall of bronze.
    They may fight you
    but (they) shall not defeat you,
    because I am together with you
    to save you and guard you.
    It is me God who is speaking.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “I will-make you (plur.) like a strong bronze stoned-wall to these people. They will-fight against you (sing.), but they could- not -win-over you (sing.), for I am with you (sing.), and I will-protect and save you (sing.).” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “They will fight against you,
    but I will protect you, like people are protected from their enemies by a bronze wall.
    They will not defeat you,
    because I will be with you,
    and I will protect and rescue you.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
