Following are a number of back-translations of Matthew 12:42:
- Uma: “So also on the Kiama Day, the queen from the South will be made alive again together with you who live at this time, and she will point out your wrongs. Because she walked/journeyed here from her village that is very far away, because she really wanted to hear the words of King Salomo who was very clever. But there is here in your midst one whose life is bigger/more important than Salomo, but you still do not believe his words.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
- Yakan: “When the day is reached when God judges mankind, the woman sultan from the place Seba of old times will go and stand and blame/accuse you. For she, she came from the edge of the world because she wanted to hear the words of Sultan Sulaiman, the man with deep knowledge/wisdom in old times. I tell you, now there is somebody here with you with greater knowledge/wisdom than Sulaiman but you do not accept his teaching.'” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
- Western Bukidnon Manobo: “In the future on the day of judgment, you will also be scolded by the queen long ago who came from the country of Sheba, for she traveled a long way just to listen to wise King Solomon’s teaching. And today there is one who teaches who is greater than Solomon among you, and you by contrast, have not received his teaching.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
- Kankanaey: “The woman also who was queen (reina) in Seba back-before, she will stand-up-with-(others) on that day to accuse you also, because as-for her, she went from the farthest country so that she would go hear what the wise King Solomon was saying, but I say to you that the one who is here now is greater than Solomon.'” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
- Tagbanwa: “At that day of judging, you will be rebuked by that woman also who reigned in Seba long ago. Because she travelled really far, coming from her country, for she wanted to comprehend the far-from-ordinary wisdom/understanding of king Solomon. But today, there is here with you one who is far more praiseworthy than Solomon, but you don’t want to listen.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
- Tenango Otomi: “Also the woman who rules in the south, when the day comes for God to judge, she will get up to accuse the people who live in these days. Because this woman came from a distant land in order to hear the words which Solomon knew. And here I am greater than Solomon and you do not want to listen to what I say.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
