Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Job 5:26:
- Kupsabiny: “You shall live in the land until you grow old
like one waits for the food/crop in the field until it is dry before it is harvested.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “EAH] Just as the harvest comes in the threshing floor, when the time comes,
just like that, having lived an entire life span, you will be caused to lie down in the tomb.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “You (sing.) will-live long, and you (sing.) will- not -die when the right time is not yet.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
