Following are a number of back-translations of Matthew 16:3:

• Uma: “If it is early morning you say: ‘It will rain, see how red and hazy it is.’ You know very well how to tell-the-appearance of the heavens. But you do not know how to tell-the-appearance of what is done by God at this time.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
• Yakan: “In the morning you say, ‘It will rain today because the sky is red and it is dark.’ You know, surprise, as to what the meaning is of what you observe in the appearance of the sky, but you do not know the meaning of what is happening at this time.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “Now if it is dawn and the clouds are red, and there is a storm cloud, you say also, ‘It will rain today.’ You can tell when it is going to rain because of the clouds. But you evidently can’t tell what God is doing today.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “In the morning also, if the sky is reddish and it is cloudy, you say, ‘It will rain probably.’ You are able to predict if it will rain or not-rain when you see the sky, but surprisingly you don’t know the meaning of the signs God has been showing concerning what is happening now.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• Tagbanwa: “Well when it’s still very early morning, you say, ‘Oh, probably it will rain today because look at that, the sky is completely overcast.’ Well it’s like you use as signals the signs in the sky, but you can’t use the signals of the signs of the present time.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
• Tenango Otomi: “When it is morning you say: ‘Now the day isn’t going to have good weather, because the sky is clouded over,’ you say. You say that you know well about what is meant by what is in the sky. Yet you say that you do not know what is meant by all the things you see during these days in which we live.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
