Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 52:2:
- Kupsabiny: “Recover from the rubbish
oh, Jerusalem you who were taken captive.
Break those chains of slavery at the neck
oh, you city of Zion that was tied.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “Shake off your dust!
Get up O Jerusalem, and sit on the throne,
O captive people of Jerusalem,
be set free [from] what has bound your neck.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “You (sing.) no-longer mourn like a sad man who sits on the ground, but-rather you (sing.) rise-up and rule again. And you (plur.) residents of Jerusalem, set- yourselves -free from captivity.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
