Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Job 2:10:
- Kupsabiny: “But Job answered his wife, ‘You are speaking like any stupid woman speaks. Should one accept only the good matters coming from God, or/and when the bad ones come to us we should complain?’ Even though such suffering came to Job, he did not return any bad word to God.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Newari: “Job replied, "You talk like a foolish woman. We take pleasure from God, so as for suffering, do we not also take [that]? In spite of all this,
Job did not commit any sin. Job did not speak even a single word against God.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “Job replied, ‘What you (sing.) speak has no value. Shall we (incl.) only accept good things from God, and not bad (things)?’
In spite of what happened to him, Job did- not -sin by speaking bad.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation) - English: “But Job replied, ‘You talk like people who do not know God talk. Should we accept only the good things that God does for us?/We should not accept only the good things that God does for us. We should also accept bad things.’ So in spite of all these things that happened to Job, he did not say anything against God.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
