Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Jeremiah 6:7:
- Kupsabiny: “As the water of a spring bubbles up continuously
Jerusalem also pours out its sin.
Rebellion and ruin stinks from this city
and I am seeing sickness and wounds.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “Like a spring that the water continues to flow, her doing of wickedness also continues. (It is) always heard in this city the violence and destruction. Her sickness and wounds are always what I can see.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “It is as though the wicked things that the people do
pour out of the city like water flows out of a spring.
The noise from people doing violent and destructive actions is heard everywhere.
I continually see people who are suffering and wounded.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
