  • Uma: “Yesus said: ‘Io’, like you (sing.) say. [Note: the answer ‘Io” does not necessarily imply full agreement] And I say further: the time will come when you [plural] will see me the Child of Mankind sitting and ruling on the right side of God who is powerful, and you will also see me coming down from heaven in the clouds.'” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “Isa said to him, ‘What you say is true, and I tell you all, it won’t be long when you see me, the Son of Man, sitting at the right side of God the Most Powerful. And you will see me coming with the clouds from the sky.'” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “And Jesus answered, ‘it is what you say, and I tell all of you that I, the Older Sibling of Mankind, in the future you will see me sitting on the right side of the Lord, and you will see me also in the clouds coming down from heaven.'” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “‘If that’s what you (sing.) say, correct,’ said Jesus in reply. ‘And there is something further that I will tell you all. In a future day, you will see me who am Child of a Person sitting at the right of God who is all-powerful. You will also see me coming from heaven accompanied-by the clouds.'” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tagbanwa: “Jesus answered saying, ‘Yes, what you said there is true. But this is what I will tell you (pl.), that from now/today you will comprehend that I who am the One From Heaven Born of Man/human am sitting at the right side of the almighty (lit. having surpassing supernatural-power) God. And also you will see me coming from heaven passing between the clouds.'” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
  • Tenango Otomi: “Jesus replied and said: ‘Yes, I am what you say. And I tell you that you will see the Man who came from heaven sitting at the right of God, who has all power. And there will come the day when he again comes, coming from heaven in a cloud.'” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
