Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Job 19:7:
- Kupsabiny: “Even if I complained that I have been squeezed/suppressed,
no one is listening to me.
I am shouting (hoarsely),
and there is no one who does me right.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “Look! I cry out ‘Injustice’, but no one responds.
Even though [I] beg for help there is no justice for me.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “‘I call to ask for help, but no one answers me. I ask for justice, but no one gives this to me.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “‘I cry out, ‘Help me!’,
but no one answers me.
I call out loudly, but there is no one, not even God, who acts fairly toward me.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
