Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 9:21:

  • Kupsabiny: “Death has attacked us through our windows,
    (it) has entered inside our houses that are surrounded by a wall.
    Our children will no longer pass on the road,
    and our young men will no longer go to the marketplace.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Death came to our (incl.) household and to firm/strong portions of our (incl.) city. Children who are playing in the streets and the young men who are gathering in the plazas were-killed.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)

    There will be no more children playing in the streets,
    there will be no more young men gathering in the city squares/marketplaces.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
