complete verse (Galatians 3:11)

Following are a number of back-translations of Galatians 3:11:

  • Uma: “So, we see clearly: there is not one person who is straight in God’s sight because of their following the Law of Musa. Because there are also the words of the Holy Book that say like this: "People who are straight in God’s sight get good life because of their faith."” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “So-then, it is really clear that there is no person considered straight by God because of his following the law. For the holy-book also says, ‘Whoever trusts in God, God will consider him straight and he will live forever.'” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “And if that’s the case, we undersand that there isn’t anybody who can be considered righteous before God by means of obeying the Law. For there is a written word of God which says, ‘Anybody who is considered righteous by God by means of his faith in the word of God, he is the one who is given life without end,’ He said.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “It is thus clear that absolutely no one will be made-righteous in God’s sight because of his obeying the law, because there is that which God caused-to-be-written which says, ‘The person whom God has made-righteous because of his faith, he has life that has no end.'” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tagbanwa: “Well is it not clear that if it’s like that, there is not even one person God regards as righteous because of his obedience to the laws, but rather because of his trust and belief in the Lord. Because what is contained in the writing says, ‘That person of mine whom I will regard as righteous, what dominates his mind/inner-being is belief and trust in me.'” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
  • Tenango Otomi: “But we know that the person who says that he does all which the law says, does not have his sins taken care of by God. Because the Holy Book says: ‘ He who believes God, that one has his sins taken care of and is given new life.'” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
