complete verse (Matthew 13:30)

Following are a number of back-translations of Matthew 13:30:

  • Uma: “Just let the grass grow with the rice, until the time of harvest. Later I’ll order the harvesters to first pull up the grass, gather it, tie-it-in-bundles and burn it. After that, only then will they collect/harvest the rice, and store it in my storage bins.’ ‘” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “Let both of them grow until harvest time. Then when harvest time has come I will say to those harvesting: Pull out those weeds first and bundle them and then burn them. And then harvest the fruit of the field and store it in the storehouse/barn.’ ‘” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “We will just let them alone until harvest, and then I will have the harvesters pull up the bad plants and tie them up to be burned. And as for the good plants, by contrast, we will put their fruit into the storehouse.’ ‘” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “Leave-it-alone so that the weeds will grow-with until the harvest-season. Then I will tell the harvesters to first get the weeds so they will bundle them to be burned, then they will harvest the rice and bring it to my granary.’ ‘” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tagbanwa: “Leave all alone to grow. Wait till harvest-time. For when it’s harvest-time, I will order the harvesters to go for those weeds first and tie them up to be burned. (They will) just get the wheat afterwards for that is what will be put there in my silo.”” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
  • Tenango Otomi: “Let it alone, let them grow together until all is ripe. I will tell the workers to pull out the weeds then, bundle them and burn them. Then the wheat will be stored in the wheat storer.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
