Following are a number of back-translations of Matthew 23:15:

• Uma: “‘Disaster on you, you religious teachers and Parisi people! You are just good on the outside! You go far crossing the sea and journeying overland in order that at least one person becomes your follower. And when you have followers, you teach them to follow your deceiving [ways], with the result that their deeds are worse than yours, and they are more fit to be punished in hell than you are.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
• Yakan: “‘You are to be pitied teachers of the religious law and Pariseo because God will punish you. You only pretend to follow God. You cross the sea going to other countries/places and you go far/walk far to teach so that at least one person will follow your teaching. But when he already follows, he is even more worthy to be put in hell than you because of what you taught him.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “Pity you, teachers of the law, and you Pharisees, because your faith in God is a lie. You cross the sea and you travel over a wide country so that you might convert a person, and the person you convert, you make him far more worthy than you of being punished in hell.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “‘Pitiful are you teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! Because you cross-over the sea and go to far countries so that you will have a way to persuade even just-one to become your disciple. And when you have persuaded him, you turn-him-into a person more worthy to be punished in hell than yourselves!” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• Tagbanwa: “Really extremely hard is what is being reserved for you, you explainers of law and Pariseo, who pretend to believe/obey God. You go all over the land/world, you cross the sea, for you are persevering in rounding up even just one person who isn’t a Judio to join the belief of the Judio. Of course if/when you get someone to join, because of your teaching he will keep-on/overdo copying your evil nature/ways, till his wickedness is much greater. Well, none other will become of him than that his punishment is now double, there in the fire which never dies down.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
• Tenango Otomi: “Listen, you teachers of the law and Pharisees, how great is the suffering you will have, for it is not true that you are good people. All over the world you go, you cross the sea to search for people to follow the word you teach. When you have converted the person to follow what you teach, then the person ends up with twice the punishment in hell that you will have.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
