complete verse (Isaiah 52:1)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 52:1:

  • Kupsabiny: “Be strong get/wake up!
    Strengthen yourself, oh Zion.
    Put on beautiful clothes
    oh, you holy Jerusalem.
    Never shall people who do not know God
    and have a blemish come to your city.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Awake, awake, O Zion!
    Put on strength and power like clothing!
    O holy city, Jerusalem, put on clothes full of your glory.
    From today on, the uncircumcised and the unclean will not come into your place.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “[You (sing.)] rise-up, O Zion, and be-strong! Show your (sing.) power, O holy city of Jerusalem. For your (sing.) enemies who are not Israelinhon, who are-being-considered dirty, can- no-longer -enter you (sing.) again.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
