complete verse (Jeremiah 45:5)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 45:5:

  • Kupsabiny: “Do you really want good things to be done for you? Do not demand/seek this at all! Keep away because I am going to destroy all people. But I will keep/guard your life in every place where you go.’ ’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “So, will- you still -desire great things for yourself? Just do not [now], for I will-send- destruction -to all the people, but you on-the-other-hand I will-save (you) wherever you go. I, the LORD, (am) the-(one) saying this.’ ’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “So, should you desire that people do things to honor you in a special way? Do not desire that. It is true that I will cause all these people to experience a great disaster, but wherever you go, I will protect you, and you will not be killed.’ ’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
