complete verse (Romans 14:11)

Following are a number of back-translations of Romans 14:11:

  • Uma: “For in the Holy Book God says like this: ‘Really-really I say: Every person certainly will kneel to me. And every person must admit/confess that I am God.’ Thus are the words of the Lord.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “Because it is written in the holy-book, saying, ‘Very truly, says God, all people will bow down/prostrate to me. All people will confess/say-it-is-true that I am really God.'” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “For there is a written word of God and there the Lord says, ‘I am the God who has no death, and because of this it’s really true that all mankind will kneel down to me and everybody will worship me.'” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “Because there is that which God caused-to-be-written which says, ‘This that I tell you (pl.) will absolutely certainly be fulfilled, I who am your Lord: All people will kneel to me. They will all acknowledge that I am God.'” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tenango Otomi: “Because it is written in the Holy Book the word which says: ‘That what I say will truly come to be, says God who lives. I tell you that all the people will kneel before me. All the people will say that I am God.’ says the word.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
