complete verse (Luke 8:35)

Following are a number of back-translations of Luke 8:35:

  • Noongar: “People came out seeing what was happening. They came to Jesus and they saw the man. All the spirits had gone away. He sat near Jesus’ feet, wearing his clothes and straight inside his head. So they were all afraid.” (Source: Warda-Kwabba Luke-Ang)
  • Uma: “That is why the townspeople came wanting to see what had happened. When they arrived at Yesus, they saw the person who was usually possessed by demons, sitting quietly beside Yesus. He was dressed/clothed and his mind was clear. They were afraid.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “Then the people went there to look what had happened. When they came there to Isa, they saw the person who had been demon possessed sitting there beside Isa’s feet. He was dressed and his mind was good (he was sane). Then they were afraid.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “Now the people who heard this news, they went out to Jesus because they wanted to see. And they saw there the person who was cured, who was sitting before Jesus, and he had clothes on and his thinking was now proper. And because of that, they were very much surprised.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “So the many-people, they went to see what had happened. When they arrived then where plural Jesus were, they found the man whom the evil-spirits had left sitting in front of Jesus clothed and with his mind made-good, so they all become afraid.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tagbanwa: “When the people knew, they went there so that they would see the truth/proof of what was being told. On their coming to Jesus, they saw that sitting now beside him was that person from whom the evil spirits had been driven out. He was dressed now and his mind was clear/alert. That crowd was reached by fear.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
