Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 65:20:
- Kupsabiny: “Never shall there be there an infant
who only lives for a few days.
No old man shall die early there
instead of growing old in his life.
When a person dies having hundred years
he has died like a person who is still young.
But the one who dies before hundred years
is a person who is cursed.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “There will never be an infant that lives [only] for some days
or an old man who does not get to live out his full years.
One who dies having lived [only] 100 years will be thought [to have died] young.
And one who has not lived 100 years will be thought accursed. ” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “There will-be- no -more infant or young-one will-die there. The one-who-dies whose age is 100 years will-be-considered as still young, and the one-who-dies not reaching 100 (years-of-age) will-be-considered whom I punished.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
