complete verse (Job 30:1)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Job 30:1:

  • Kupsabiny: “But today people have laughed at me
    those whose fathers were nothing/useless and not worthy
    even to the point that they could go with my dogs to look after sheep.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “But now, seeing me, [those] small ones scoff and laugh at me.
    I would not even have considered their fathers worthy to be put with dogs as care-takers for my sheep.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “‘But now the people who are younger than me mock me, whose fathers are not at-all trustworthy. My dogs who guard my sheep are indeed more trustworthy than them.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “Then those three men stopped answering Job, because they could not convince Job that he was wrong in claiming that he had not done anything that was wrong.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
