complete verse (Mark 16:9)

Following are a number of back-translations of Mark 16:9:

  • Uma: “When Yesus arose from the dead very early on Sunday, first he made himself appear to Maria Magdalena. This Maria, Yesus had once expelled seven demons that possessed her.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “When Isa was alive again from his death on that Sunday, he first appeared to Mariyam the woman from Magdala, the one from whom he had driven out seven demons.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “In the very early morning on Sunday when Jesus was already raised from the dead, he appeard first to Mary Magdalene, the woman from whom he drove away seven demons.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “When it was dawning on Sunday was when Jesus came-to-life again. Upon his coming-to-life again, he first appeared (lit. preceded-to appear) to Maria Magdalena from-whom-he-had-caused-to-leave seven evil-spirits.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tagbanwa: “When it was fully Sunday morning, when Jesus had come alive again, the very-first he went-to-see/meet was Maria Magdalena. (Can’t use ‘showed himself to’ because that’s what only evil spirits do to scare people.) As for that woman, seven evil spirits had been driven out of her by Jesus.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
