complete verse (Mark 8:31)

Following are a number of back-translations of Mark 8:31:

  • Uma: “After that, Yesus began to teach his disciples who must happen to him. He said to them: ‘I the Child of Mankind must get much suffering. The village elders, leading priests and the religion teachers will repudiate me. They will kill me, but three days after that I will come back alive.'” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “Na, Isa began to teach his disciples about himself. ‘I,’ he said, ‘the Son of Mankind, I have to endure/suffer much persecution and I will not be recognised/accepted by the elders and the leaders of the priests and the teachers of the religious law. I will be killed and after three days (bahangi) I will be alive again.'” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “Then Jesus taught his disciples, he said, ‘I, the older brother of mankind, there are many tortures that I will be caused to suffer. I will be rejected by the elders of the Jews, and the Pharisees, and the teachers of the law. They will kill me and in three days from then I will rise again.'” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “Then Jesus began to make-clear to his disciples what would happen to him in the future (lit. addition of days). He said, ‘I who am Child of a Person, it is necessary that I undergo much hardship/suffering. The elders (lit. fathers) and the leaders of the priests and the teachers of the law, they will reject me and they will have-me-killed, but I will come-alive again on the third day.'” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tagbanwa: “Without anything further, Jesus began to make known to his disciples that, as for him who was the One From Heaven Born of Man/human, he would experience very-many hardships. He would be insulted/belittled by the important tribal-leaders, the chiefs of the priests and the explainers of law, and he would even be killed. But on the third day, he would indeed be made alive again.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
  • Yagaria: “And then he began to tell them thus: ‘The Great Man will suffer great pain, and the overseers and the great religion leaders and the preachers will turn their backs on him, and will kill him, and he will die, and after three days he will become alive again, and rise.'” (Source: Renck, p. 94)
