Following are a number of back-translations of Mark 10:40:

• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “however, I am not the one to choose who will be caused to sit on my right side and on my left side. For the only ones who will be able to sit there are those for whom my Father God has prepared it.'” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “But the one who will sit at my right and left, I have no authority to say, because God has already chosen the ones to sit there.'” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
