  • Tenango Otomi: “Because of the grace of God, the Son of God died in order to save us and he forgave our sins.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
  • Bariai: “In our (incl.) joining together with him, he unbound us in order that we leave our bad life. And this action comes to us by his blood which spilled in the day that he died.

  • Mairasi: “His good intestine [goodness/mercy/grace/generosity] is so great that He even gave us His riches/inheritance. That inheritance is like this: The first person was Great Above One’s very own possession. But he did wrong until finally we people became slaves of the malevolent Spirit [Satan]. Then Great Above One Himself bought us back [redeemed us], He bought us back, taking us into the palm of Yesus’ hands [in Yesus] with His blood, paying our price to become His children. That’s not all. He truly already completely wiped out/dismantled our wrongs [He forgave our wrongs].” (Source: Enggavoter 2004)
  • German Gute Nachricht 2018: “Through his blood we are redeemed: all our sins are forgiven. This is how God showed us the riches of his grace.”
