complete verse (Romans 9:5)

Following are a number of back-translations of Romans 9:5:

  • Uma: “They are the descendants of Abraham, Ishak and Yakub, their elders of old that God chose. And at the birth of the Redeemer King to become a man, he too was born from the descendants of the Israel. The Redeemer King, his power is greater than all, he is God that it is proper we should praise forever. Amin!” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “They are the descendants of our (excl.) famous/illustrious forefathers. And Isa Almasi is also their descendant because when-he-was-a-man he was of the Isra’il tribe. God, the one who rules over everything, is worthy to be praised forever. Amin.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “He chose their ancestors long ago, and when Christ, who is the God who controls anything became human, He was born as one of their fellow Jews. May He be praised forever!” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “Their ancestors were important (lit. valuable) people long ago. Even the Messiah who is Cristo was a descendant of Jews as concerns his humanity, and he is God who rules over all that exists. May he be praised forever! Amen.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tenango Otomi: “They are descendants of the ancient Jews. And concerning Christ, when he was born he also was of the Jewish people. And he is himself God who rules all that there is. And he is the one who is praised forever. Amen.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
