Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 16:18:

• Kupsabiny: “I will send two times suffering on account of their sin and evil. They have defiled my land because of things that are shaped that have no life. They have placed disgusting things in this my land.’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “Therefore I will-have- them -pay double for their wickedness and sin, because they have defiled my land which I possess by worshipping their detestable and dead little-gods.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “Because of all the wicked things that they have done , I will punish them twice as much as I would punish other people. I will do that because they have caused my land to become unacceptable to me because of their worshiping lifeless statues of detestable gods, and also because they have done many other evil things throughout my land.’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
