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

• Uma: “‘Disaster on you, you religious teachers and Parisi people! You are just good on the outside! Even the little plants, like mint, lemongrass and basil, you offer-in-worship one tenth part to God. Yet the really big commands in the Lord’s Law, like behaving uprightly, loving others, and keeping promises, you don’t pay attention to [them]. Actually it is those big commands that you must keep, and also don’t forget the small commands.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
• Yakan: “‘You are to be pitied teachers of the law and Pariseo for God will punish you. You only pretend to follow God. You tithe even up to the plants for spicing your food. But you do not follow the great/important commandments. You are not straight/righteous, you have no pity/mercy on your companions and you are not trustworthy. It is good if you tithe, but you should not forget/reject doing what I said there.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “Pity you, you teachers of the law and you Pharisees, because your faith in God is a lie. You give to God the tenth part, even of the seasonings of food like mint, anise and cummin, but you do not obey the greatest commands like righteous activity, pitying your companion, and fulfilling your promises. You must give the tenth, but you must not also avoid these more important laws.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “‘Pitiful are you teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! Because you are careful to give to God the tenth, even what you harvest that is added-in-small-amounts (as flavoring) to what is cooked-for-viand, but you have been ignoring the more-valuable commands of the law that say that your way with your fellows should be righteous, you should be merciful to them and be trustworthy/faithful. It would be good/better if you had been careful/thorough with these more-important things while meanwhile you continued to give the tenth.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• Tagbanwa: “Extremely hard is being reserved for you, you explainers of law and Pariseo, who pretend to believe/obey God. You follow/obey well the law about giving God a tenth part of your plants, even food flavorings. But you deliberately-forget to follow/obey the most important teaching of the law, which is straight/righteous deeds, aid-giving/generosity and the habit of being reliable/trustworthy. You really must do these most important things, and keep on too with your following/obeying of those others which were said.” (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. Concerning the tenth you give to God, you give it of all you have, even the mint you give a tenth of to God. The same for the anise and cummin, you give the tenth of it to God. It is good that you do so, but there in the law it says another word that is more important that you do. Because it is written that you must walk good, and you must have mercy, and that you must truly walk so that all is correct in what you do. These are the words which are most important that you do, as well as continuing to give a tenth to God.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
