complete verse (Romans 14:6)

Following are a number of back-translations of Romans 14:6:

  • Uma: “The person who makes-more-of one day, he does it in order to honor the Lord. The person who eats anything, he eats it in order to honor the Lord, because he says his thank you to God. So also the persons who eat only certain things. Those people follow their taboo to honor the Lord, and they also say thank you.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “A person who honors/makes great one day he does this in-order-to honor God. Likewise also a person who eats anything he eats in-order-to-honor God, because he thanks God for his food. A person who does not eat meat likewise honors God also, that’s why he does not eat meat and he also thanks God.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “For the person who considers that one day is precious, the reason he thinks this is so that he might please God. And the same way also, the person who eats everything, the reason he eats it is because he considers that this is what God wants, and he gives thanks for this to God. And the person who only eats vegetables for his viand, the reason that’s the only thing he uses for viand is because he considers that that’s what pleases God and he also thanks God for it.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “The one who counts one day as more-valuable does that in order to thereby honor the Lord Jesus. So also the one who eats meat. He wants to thereby honor the Lord Jesus, because he thanks God for what he eats (used only of viand). Even also the one who refuses to eat meat, he refuses because of his desire to honor the Lord Jesus, and he also gives-thanks for what he eats.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tenango Otomi: “The believer who respects a certain day respects that day to honor God. The believer who does not respect the day which his fellow believer respects, does not respect the day because in what he does he intends to honor God. The believer who eats all the things which are edible, eats them because he thanks God for all that he eats. The believer who says that there are some things which God does not want to be eaten, does not eat because by this he honors God. And also he thanks God for what he does eat.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
