complete verse (Matthew 23:35)

Following are a number of back-translations of Matthew 23:35:

  • Uma: “Your ancestors killed many people whose behavior was upright, beginning with their killing Habel, a person whose behavior was upright long-ago, down-to [lit., arrive-arrive to] your killing Zakharia the child of Berekia, whom you killed in the yard of the House of God, between the house and the offering burning table [altar]. So, to you who live at this time, I will also send/order prophets, smart people and ones who will teach you my words. Some of them you will kill, some of they you will crucify, others you will beat in your houses of prayer, others you will chase to the villages they will flee to. In the end, you who live at this time will bear all the wrong/guilt of your elders who killed the upright people long ago.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “Therefore judgment will fall on you (lit. you will be hit by judgment) because of the killing of people who have no sin, beginning with Habil the son of Grandfather Adam up to Jakariya the son of Baraki whom you killed between the big prayer-house and the place-for-sacrifice.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “Because of this, you will be the ones punished for the murder of all the righteous who were murdered starting with the killing of Abel, the righteous one long ago, until the killing of the son of Barachiah, who was Zechariah, that you murdered in the space between the House of God and the altar of sacrifice.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “Therefore you will be responsible for the deaths of all the righteous people on this earth beginning with when they killed Abel until when your ancestors killed Zekarias the child of Barakias in the area-between the altar and the Temple.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tagbanwa: “Well, because of this, the punishment will come to you for all these people who have been killed under the heavens who are straight/righteous in the sight of God, going from that righteous Abel who was the first to be killed long ago, right up to the killing of Zacarias who was the son of Baraquias, whom you Judio killed there between the house/building of the Templo and the altar in its like-a-yard.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
  • Tenango Otomi: “Therefore there where you live, all the punishment will be sent to you which is for all the good people who have been killed, starting with the killing of the good Abel until the son of Barachiah, son of Zechariah who was killed between where the altar and the church were.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
