Following are a number of back-translations of Romans 2:26:
- Uma: “As for the non-Jews, they are not circumcised according to the Lord’s Law. But if their behavior is straight like the behavior that is demanded in the Lord’s Law, God will certainly receive them the same as people who are circumcised according to the Lord’s Law.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
- Yakan: “The people not Yahudi, even if they are not circumcised but if they follow God’s law, God looks at them as if they had been circumcised.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
- Western Bukidnon Manobo: “And the same way also, for example, if there is a person who is not a Jew and he thoroughly obeys the Law, God will accept Him just as if he were already circumcised.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
- Kankanaey: “So also the Gentiles, even though they have not gotten-circumcised, yet if they obey God’s law, God counts them as if they are his people who have-gotten-circumcised.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
- Tenango Otomi: “Concerning the person who isn’t a Jew, if he does what is said in the law which the Jews follow, then he is God’s person. He then becomes as though he were a Jew.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
