Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Lamentations 1:18:

• Kupsabiny: “Jerusalem continued to groan,
  ‘God is righteous in what he has done to me
  for I have moved away from his word.
  Listen, everyone,
  and look at how I am suffering.
  My soldiers and daughters/girls have been taken away
  to become prisoners in another country.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Newari: “The LORD is righteous,
  I myself disobeyed his command.
  Oh, all you people, listen to me,
  and look upon my sorrow.
  My young men and women
  have been deported. ” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “Jerusalem said, ‘The LORD is just; but I did not obey his command. You all people, [you] listen and [you] look-at my suffering. My young women and men were-taken-captive.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• English: “But what Yahweh has done to us is fair,
  because we have rebelled against obeying the commands that he gave us.
  You people everywhere, listen to us;
  look and see that we are suffering greatly.
  We had many sons and daughters,
  but they have been captured and forced to go to distant countries.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
