Following are a number of back-translations of Matthew 12:5:

• Uma: “Think also what is written in the Law of Musa: priest in the House of God, they do work on the day of worship, but they are not considered-wrong.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
• Yakan: “And did you also not read in the kitab Tawrat that the priests in the temple (lit. big prayer-house) work on every Saturday even though it is forbidden by the law to work? But they do not sin.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “It isn’t possible that you haven’t also read in the writings of Moses that on the day of rest the priests in the House of God do not rest. And in spite of this, they do not sin.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “You should consider also what was written in Moses’ law that forbids working on the day for-resting. It says that the priests who are-working in the Temple on the day for-resting are breaking the law but it is nevertheless not sin for them (lit. not their sin).” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• Tagbanwa: “Can’t you read in the laws which Moises wrote that each Day of Rest, the priests in the Templo indeed break the law about this day because they do a lot of work? Even though it’s like that, what they’re doing doesn’t cause them to be sinning.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
• Tenango Otomi: “Haven’t you read what the law says, that concerning the priests who are in the church, that on the day of rest they are to work, yet it isn’t said that they commit sin?” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
