Following are a number of back-translations of Luke 22:26:

  • Noongar: “But you must not behave the same way. No! The greatest person among you must become low, like the lowest person, and the boss must become the servant.” (Source: Warda-Kwabba Luke-Ang)
  • Uma: “But you, don’t be like that! Just the opposite. Whoever of you is of highest rank must behave like one whose life is very small [unimportant]. And the person who commands must behave like a servant.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “But you should not be like that. The greatest among you his conduct should be as if he were the youngest. And the leader should think of himself as if he is the servant.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “But as for you by contrast,’ said Jesus, ‘your activity cannot be like this. For the one who is the greatest among you, he must regard himself as the least of all. And the one who is the master should think of himself as the servant of everybody.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “But that isn’t the way you should be, because the most-important among you, he must consider himself as if he is the youngest, and the leader should become like a servant.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tagbanwa: “But as for you, not like that. On the contrary the most important must consider himself as only ordinary/low-class, and the one in charge, servant of his companions.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
