Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Isaiah 66:11:

    who satisfies you with her breasts.
    You shall suck with happiness
    those breasts where there is milk.’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Just as a child drinks a mother’s milk and is satisfied,
    so, just like that, seeing Jerusalem in a beautiful condition you will also be satisfied."” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
