Following are a number of back-translations of Luke 13:21:

  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “The increase of the people that God rules over is also like yeast. If there is a woman who is making bread, she gets some yeast and she mixes it with a basket of flour and that yeast permeates that flour, and that flour gets bigger.'” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
