Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Ezekiel 19:11:
- Kupsabiny: “Its branches were strong
who were able to become stick for a ruler (a scepter).
This tree grew to become tall and looked down at the others
so that everybody could see that it had grown many leaves.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “Its branches are strong/firm and as-if can be-made into a seemed-like-cane of a king. The grapes grew- very -tall, more/above than the thick-spreading plants. It can-be-seen because of its height and of the thickness of its branches.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “That grapevine grew and became taller than all the nearby trees;
everyone could see that it was very strong and healthy.
And those branches were good for making scepters
that symbolize the power/authorityof a king.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
