complete verse (Job 14:19)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Job 14:19:

  • Kupsabiny: “Rain washes small stones
    and levels/smoothens the soil to go away completely
    That is how you destroy the things one hopes for/relies on.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Like water erodes rock,
    and like flood waters wash away the soil of the ground,
    you destroy people’s hopes.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “and as a stone wears-away by the continuing flow of the water and land washes-away because of the heavy rain, you (sing.) destroy the hope(s) of man.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
