complete verse (Jeremiah 8:10)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 8:10:

  • Kupsabiny: “So, I shall give their wives to other men/people
    and I shall make others inherit their farms
    because they loved greediness and useless things,
    from the small person to the big one.
    These people all use lies
    from the prophets to the priests.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Therefore I will-give to the other people their wives and farms. Because from the least to the greatest, they cheat in-order to gain-money. Even the prophets and priests also cheat.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “So, I will give their wives to other men;
    I will give their fields to the enemy soldiers who conquer them.
    All the people, including those who are important and those who are not important, deceive others in order to obtain their possessions.
    Even my prophets and my priests do that.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
