Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Job 24:24:
- Kupsabiny: “Sinner may find/get a blessing for a few days
but before long he pulls them down
they get lost like the heads of millet after they have been harvested.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “Wicked people will be great for a moment.
After that they will no longer exist.
They will be brought down and collected like the others.
They will be cut off like little ears of grain.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “For a short time they prosper, but in not a-long-time they will-vanish like a flower that withers or like an ear-of-grain that was cut-off.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
