Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Micah 3:7:
- Kupsabiny: “The prophets shall be ashamed
and become disgraced.
They shall all be speechless,
because there is nothing that God shall answer them.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “The seers will be ashamed,
the fortunetellers’ face will turn red.
All of them will cover their face
because there is no answer from God."” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “You (plur.) prophets and diviners will- surely -be-put-to-shame. You (plur.) will-cover your (plur.) face in shame, because you (plur.) have- not -receieved the message from God.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
- English: “Then you seers/people who predict what will happen in the future will be disgraced;
you will cover your faces because you will be ashamed,
because when you ask me what will happen, there will be no answer from me.’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
