complete verse (Revelation 18:8)

Following are a number of back-translations of Revelation 18:8:

  • Uma: “So, because thus is their thinking, that’s why in just one day the village of Babel will be struckby these plagues/tortures: disease, saddness/suffering and hunger. And that village will be burned by fire. Because the one who punishes that village is the Lord who is powerful.'” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “Because of this boasting of hers, suddenly the disasters will come to her. In just one day sickness and grief and famine will come to her together. And she will be burnt in fire because the Lord is powerful, he is God who will drop-judgment on her/will sentence her.'” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “And since that is what she is thinking, on a single day she will be overtaken by torment. She will be punished with sickness, hunger, and death, and she will be thoroughly burned. For God who is the powerful Lord of all is the one to punish her.'” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “Therefore simultaneous hardships will arrive to her, and suddenly/unexpectedly she will experience death, sorrow and famine, and then she will be burned-up, because the one who will punish her, it is the Lord God who is powerful.’ That is what the voice from heaven said.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tagbanwa: “But well, because of that boasting of hers, epidemics, illness, grief and hunger will coincide in coming to her all in one day. And then that city which is being signified by this woman, it will be completely-burned-up with fire. Because God who has surpassing supernatural-power is judging her/it.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
  • Tenango Otomi: “Therefore now, in just one day there will come the calamity they will pass through. They will cry, they will hunger, people will die, the city will be burned. For the Lord God has all power and will punish this city.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
