Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Amos 4:6:
- Kupsabiny: “God is saying,
‘I sent famine to all your cities,
I made food to be missing in all your villages.
In spite of that,
you did not return to me.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “In all the cities I made your stomachs empty.
In all the places where you lived there was scarcity of bread,
yet you have not returned to me,’
says the LORD. ” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “‘I was- the -one-who-sent you (plur.) famine to all your (plur.) towns, but you (plur.) still did- not -return to me. I, the Lord GOD, (am) the-(one) -saying this.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
