complete verse (Jeremiah 20:8)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 20:8:

  • Kupsabiny: “Whenever I speak I shout
    riot/uproar and destruction!
    Your word has caused me
    to be insulted/mocked and abused all day long.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “Whenever I speak I shouted hard the message about the violence and destruction! And this message of yours (sing.) is the one-that-made me into a laughingstock and always an object-of-scorn.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “When I tell people your messages, I shout saying,
    ‘Yahweh is going to cause you to experience violence and destruction!’
    So because I tell them those messages from you,
    they insult me and scoff at me all day long.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
