Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Micah 7:16:
- Kupsabiny: “Countries shall see these things and their stomachs break (be ashamed/devastated)
over the weakness of their soldiers.
They will be much surprised
the mouths closed/held (tight)
and ears becoming deaf.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “People from different nations will see this and be ashamed,
and will cover their face with their hands.
Not only that, their ears will become deaf.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “These will-be-seen by other nations and they will-be-disgraced in spite of their being-powerful. And they no-longer will-speak and will-listen to the mocking of us (excl.).” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
