complete verse (Jeremiah 31:13)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 31:13:

  • Kupsabiny: “God is saying,
    ‘I will turn their mourning to become happiness
    and I will make their pain to become joy.
    Then their daughters will sing/dance with joy
    and their young men and old men will be happy.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Their ladies and young-men as-well-as the old-ones will-dance for joy. I will-replace their crying with joy. Instead that they will-mourn, I will-comfort them.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “The young women will dance joyfully,
    and all the men, young ones and old ones, will join with them.
    I will cause them to rejoice instead of mourning;
    I will comfort them and cause them to be happy instead of being sad.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
