Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 28:4:
- Kupsabiny: “I will also return the king of Judah, Jehoiachin son of Jehoiakim and all the people of Judah who were taken with him to that place. I God am saying that I will break the power of the king of Babylon.’ ’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “I will- also -bring-back here King Jehoyakin of Juda the child of Jehoyakim, and all who are from-Juda who were-taken-captive to Babilonia, for I will- now -destroy/[lit. vanish] the power of the king of Babilonia. I, the LORD, (am) the-(one) saying this.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “And I will also cause King Jehoiachin to be brought back here, and all the other people who were captured and taken to Babylon. The king of Babylon has forced you to do what he wants, like someone puts a yoke on the neck of an ox to force it to do what he wants it to do. But I will cause that to end. That will happen because I, Yahweh, have said it.’ ’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
