  • Yakan: “Isa said yet, ‘Whoever divorces his wife and marries another one, he commits adultery. And whoever marries a divorced woman, he commits adultery.'” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “And Jesus said again, ‘If there is a man and he divorces his wife and marries again, this man has sinned against his former wife; and a man sins also when he marries a woman who has been divorced by her husband.'” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “Jesus also said, ‘Whatever man divorces his spouse and then marries another woman sins by committing-adultery (lit. woman-with). It’s the same with the man who marries a woman who is divorced, he just the same sins by committing-adultery.'” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tagbanwa: “Like what was commanded about marriage. Whoever man will divorce his wife and marry someone else, he really has behaved-immorally. And also the one who marries that woman who was divorced, he too has behaved-immorally.'” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
