  • Yakan: “He came to us (excl.) and he took the belt of Paul and-then tied his own feet and hands with the belt.

  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “He came near to us, and he got Paul’s belt, and he tied up his own hands and feet, and he said, ‘The Holy Spirit causes us to understand that the owner of this belt, just like this will be the way he is tied up by the Jews in Jerusalem, and they will turn him over to the Gentiles.'” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)

  • Tagbanwa: “He approached us (excl.), and then he removed Pablo’s belt and used it to tie up his own feet and hands. When he had done that, he spoke saying, ‘This is what the Espiritu Santo is making known.
