complete verse (Isaiah 59:17)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 59:17:

  • Kupsabiny: “He will put on righteousness like a dress of metal
    that is put on to guard the chest
    and he sat/stayed with salvation like a hat
    of metal on his head.
    He had the desire to take revenge for (the) evil
    and anger overwhelmed (him) like a gown.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “On [his] chest [he put] a breast plate of righteousness,
    and on [his] head he put a helmet of salvation.
    and he put on clothing [for] taking revenge,
    and as an upper garment he put on the passion.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “He used as a shield for chest the righteousness, and he used as helmet the salvation. He wore as cloth the vengeance and the severe wrath.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
