Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 2:25:
- Kupsabiny: “Stomach of Israel, do not exert yourselves for nothing
or let your throats become dry
while you follow worthless idols.
But you have said, ‘We will not go back again.
We have believed in the idols of other communities.
So we shall follow those.’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “‘Israelinhon, your (plur.) sandals are- now -worn-out, and your (plur.) throat are- now -dried in following the other gods. But you (plur.) said, ‘(It is) not possible that we will-turn-away/reject the other gods. We love them and we will-follow them.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
