complete verse (Jeremiah 3:7)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 3:7:

  • Kupsabiny: “I was thinking, ‘When/after (she) has done all those things, she will come back to me,’ but (she) did not do like that. Also her sister Judah saw (it) the one who was restless.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “I thought that after she had-done all this she will-return to me, but she did- not -return. And this was-seen by her deceitful sibling which is Juda.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “I thought that they would return to me, so I said to them, ‘Come back to me!’ But they refused. So I sent them away to other countries, like a man writes a note saying that he is divorcing his wife and then sends his wife away because she has committed adultery.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
