complete verse (Jeremiah 32:7)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 32:7:

  • Kupsabiny: “‘Your brother Hanamel from your other father (paternal cousin) who is called Shallum will come to you. He will say to you, ‘My brother, buy for yourself my land which is in Anathoth, because you are my nearest brother so it is fitting for you to redeem that land.’ ’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Hanamel the child of Shalum who (is) my uncle will-go to me and will-say, ‘Buy my field/farm at Anatot. Because you are my nearest relative, you have the right and responsibility to buy it.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “‘Your cousin Hanamel, the son of Shallum your uncle, will come to you. He will say to you, ‘Buy my field at Anathoth, your hometown. Because you are my closest relative, it is written in our laws that you have the right to buy it before I ask if anyone else wants to buy it.’ ’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
