complete verse (Job 5:5)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Job 5:5:

  • Kupsabiny: “Hungry people eat the food of the stupid
    and nothing remains even what grew between the thornbushes.
    People who are thirsty think of eating the wealth of those people.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “The harvest that he harvests will be eaten by the poor [by those who do not see to eat].
    Even [what] sprouts among thorns will be gathered and taken away.
    Thirsty ones will desire his wealth and property.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “His produce, as-well-as the fruits of his plants that grow in the thorny bushes, are-taken by hungry people. And his wealth is-taken by the people who are-thirsty for possessions.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
