Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 44:27:
- Kupsabiny: “I am preparing for you evil and certainly not goodness. I will destroy all you people of Judah in battle or famine so that not even one person shall remain.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
- Hiligaynon: “For instead that I will-watch you (plur.) for your good, I will-harm you. You (plur.) will-die here in Egipto by battle or famine until no one will-be-left among you.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “Because I will be watching over you, not to cause good things to happen to you but to cause things to happen that will harm you. Almost everyone from Judah who is now here in Egypt will experience being killed by their enemies’ swords, or dying from famine.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
