Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Joel 1:2:

• Kupsabiny: “Listen, oh my elders
  and hear, oh my community.
  This is a word/matter that has not happened any other day to you (plur.)
  and your grandfathers have not seen.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Newari: “Hey you elders! Listen!
  All you people living in the land of Judah, give ear with proper attention!
  Has ever such a thing happened in your days
  or in the days of your forefather?” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
• Hiligaynon: “You (plur.) rulers of Juda and all its residents, [you (plur.)] listen to this which I will-tell you (plur.). Nothing yet has-happened like this (which happened) during the time of your (plur.) ancestors or during your (plur.) time now.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “Listen to this that I say, you older-men and all people here-in Juda. Please think if there-is something-like this that happened in your time or in the time of your ancestors.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
