complete verse (Mark 11:32)

Following are a number of back-translations of Mark 11:32:

  • Uma: “Yet it would be difficult if we said that his power was just from mankind.’ The Yahudi leaders were afraid to disparage Yohanes the Baptizer, for they feared the crowd, for all the crowds thought Yohanes was indeed a prophet.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “But if we say, ‘From mankind,’ na that is also frightening.’ They were afraid of the people because all the people believed that Yahiya was truly a prophet of God.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “And if we say it was only a person, the people will be angry at us.’ (They were afraid of the people because the people believed that John the Baptist was a prophet of God.)” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “But if we say that only a person gave it to him, how-dangerous!’ That’s what they said, because they were afraid of the many-people, because they all believed that Juan was a true prophet.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tagbanwa: “But then if we say, ‘From people,’ what might be done to us by the all-the-people?’ They were afraid of the people because Juan was recognized by all as being a prophet.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
