Following are a number of back-translations of Hebrews 7:23:

• Uma: “There is another thing: the priests descendants of Lewi were many, for they were ordinary people that died too. None of them continued on in their work: one died and was replaced by another, and-so-it-was-on-and-on.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
• Yakan: “There is yet another difference between the former priests and Isa. The former priests were many, because someone took their place when they died.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “And that’s not all, because as for those priests long ago who were descendants of Levi, it was necessary that there were very many of them because when one died, it was necessary that he be replaced by another.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “Still another advantage of Jesus’ priesthood over the many priests who were Levi’s descendants is that they didn’t continue their work as priests but rather replaced-one-another-in-turn, because they all of-course died.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• Tagbanwa: “Here is something else that we can say, in the past there were many priests one after the other. Because of death, that was why they could not continue in their responsibility/job.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
• Tenango Otomi: “Concerning other priests who have lived, all have died. When they died, another took up his work. So by now, very many priests have lived, yet all have passed on.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
