Following are a number of back-translations of Romans 10:21:

  • Yakan: “But if it is about the people of Isra’il, this is what Isaya said, ‘God says, ‘I am always persuading/pleading with people not listening to me, people whose heads are hard (stubborn, rebellious).’ ‘” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “There’s also something God says by means of the words of Isaiah concerning the people who are descendants of Israel, where he said, ‘Their breath is very hard (they are very stubborn) and they were very disobedient, because I am always begging them to believe in me, but they will not listen.'” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
