complete verse (Romans 4:6)

Following are a number of back-translations of Romans 4:6:

  • Uma: “This teaching is the same as the words of King Daud long ago. For Daud said that the persons that God received as straight persons, but not because of their behavior, were blessed.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “This is the meaning of what Da’ud of-old said when he spoke that everyone is really glad whose sin is forgiven and (who is) considered straight by God but not because of his good deeds.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “This is what King David told about long ago when he said that ‘far better off is that person whom God considers to be righteous and whom God forgives, not because of his good works but rather, only because of his faith in him.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “This also is what David meant (lit. wanted to say) when he spoke of the happiness of the person whom God counts as righteous, the reason for it not being what he did.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tenango Otomi: “David told about the good fortune met by the people whom God cleared even though they did not do all the good which should be done.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
