complete verse (Jeremiah 48:45)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 48:45:

  • Kupsabiny: “Those who flee have gone until
    they (stand) perplexed in Heshbon
    because that place has also been set on fire
    the fire is burning (fiercely) in the home/palace of Sihon.
    I have sent that fire to the whole country
    and destroyed the stupid people.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “The pitiful ones (who) have-escaped want to flee to Heshbon. But this Heshbon that was ruled-over before by King Sihon (is)-burning with fire. The mountains which (are) the hiding-place of (those) from-Moab who want battle/war are-being-devoured (by fire).” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “The people will flee as far as Heshbon city,
    but they will not be able to go any further,
    because a fire will burn in Heshbon,
    which is the city where King Sihon lived long ago,
    and it will burn up all the people in Moab
    who noisily/loudly boasted very much.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
