Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 5:5:
- Kupsabiny: βI shall confront the leaders
to tell them these words/matters.
Truly they do know the wishes/demands of God
and what their God wants for them to do.β
But they all refused the power/authority of God
or/and to obey him.β (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: βTherefore I will-go to their leaders/[lit. heads] and speak to them. Surely they know the ways of the LORD their God which being-caused-to-be-followed by them.β But even they also rejected what is-being-to-be-followed by God.β (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
