Following are a number of back-translations of Luke 23:50:

  • Noongar: (incl. v. 51) “One man stood there, Joseph of Arimathea, a town of Judea. He was a very good, honest man. He was one of the Council and also one of the Pharisees, but he did not agree with their thinking and what they had done. He faithfully awaited the Kingdom of God to come.” (Source: Warda-Kwabba Luke-Ang)
  • Uma: “There was a man named Yusuf who was from the town of Arimatea in the land of Yudea. Yusuf was a good man and his behavior was upright, and he was also waiting for the time that God would become King in the world. Even though he was a judge in the Big Religious Meeting of the Yahudi people, but he did not like the command and their decision that said that Yesus must be killed.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “There was a man there called Yusup from the town Arimati, there in the place Yahudiya. He was a good man and his conduct was straight/righteous. He waited for the fulfillment of the things foretold about God’s rule. He was one of the councilors but he had not gone along with their thinking and doing in killing Isa.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)

  • Kankanaey: “There was a man named Jose who was from-Arimatea which was a town in the province of Judea. He was a good and righteous person who was waiting for the arrival of the ruling of God. Even though he was one of the leaders of the Jews, he hadn’t agreed-with the plan of his companions and its fulfillment.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tagbanwa: “Well, there was a man whose name was Jose. He was a taga Arimatea, which was one of the towns of the Judio. As for that person, he was nice/good and straight/righteous, and one of those who was longing-for (lit. causing-to-arrive) the kingdom of God. He was indeed a member of the Sanedrin, but was not in agreement with the sentence passed on Jesus by those companions of his.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
