Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 17:27:
- Kupsabiny: “But if you do not listen to what I am saying to guard that day of Sabbath like a day that is set aside, if you do not abandon carrying (heavy) utensils and go inside bringing/taking through those gates of Jerusalem on the day of Sabbath, I shall ignite a big fire at those gates so that all the good houses in Jerusalem are burned and no one is ever able to extinguish that fire.’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “But if you (plur.) would- not -follow me and you (plur.) would- not -consider as a unique day the Day For-Resting, and you (plur.) will-bring your (plur.) merchandise at the entrances/gates of Jerusalem on that day, I will-burn the entrances/gates of Jerusalem as-well-as the strong/firm portions of this city, and no one can-put-off this fire.’ ’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “But if you do not pay attention to what I say, and if you refuse to dedicate the Sabbath days to me, and if you continue to carry loads through these gates into the city on Sabbath days, I will burn these gates completely. The fire will spread to the palaces, and no one will be able to put out that fire.’’’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
