Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Joel 1:10:
- Kupsabiny: “The farms are left bare/empty.
The land is crying because the crops are destroyed.
There is no more wine in the land
or olive oil.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “Fields are barren,
the ground has become dry,
grain has been destroyed,
there is no longer any new grape wine,
nor any oil.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “The fields are-ruined/destroyed as-if-like a person who mourns. The grains are-ruined/destroyed and no-more juice of the grapes and oil.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- Kankanaey: “It’s as if the soil is also mourning, because the (rice)-fields and what can-be-harvested there are ruined, the grapes have dried-up and the olive (loan olivo) trees have died.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
