complete verse (Jeremiah 23:28)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 23:28:

  • Kupsabiny: “Let the one with dreams announce his dreams and the one who has my word, announce the word in one stomach. Hey, which is (most) important, the chaff or the wheat?” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Let these prophets tell their dreams, but those prophets who have-heard my word should tell this with faithfulness. For their dream has difference from my word, just as a straw is different from the grain.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Allow those false prophets to tell people their dreams, but those who have messages that really come from me should proclaim those messages faithfully. I, Yahweh, say that like straw and grain are certainly very different, my messages and the messages from those false prophets are certainly very different.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
