Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 32:8:
- Kupsabiny: “And just as God had said, my brother Hanamel came to me in the compound of the house of the guards. He said to me, ‘Buy for yourself my land that is in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, because you are the one who ought to redeem that land.’ I realized from that that those words truly came from God.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “‘And as the LORD had-said, Hanamel my cousin came to me there at the courtyard of the guards. He said, ‘Buy my field/farm at Anatot in the land of the tribe of Benjamin. You have right and responsibility to possess/own it, therefore buy it.’
‘I knew that the LORD himself had said that,” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation) - English: “And just as Yahweh had predicted, my cousin Hanamel came to see me in the courtyard of the palace. He said, ‘Please buy my field at Anathoth in the area where the descendants of Benjamin live. It is written in our laws that you have the right to buy it before I ask if anyone else wants to buy it.’ When he said that, I knew that the message that I had received was truly from Yahweh.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
