Following are a number of back-translations of Matthew 3:11:

• Uma: “Yohanes also said: ‘I baptize you with water, as a sign that you have repented from your sins. But one will come after me whose power surpasses mine. Even to become his servant who carries his shoes, I am not worthy. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
• Yakan: “I bathe you with water so that it can be seen that you regret and leave your sins. But somebody will come here after me, he is more powerful than I am. I am not even worthy to carry his shoes. That one will bathe you with something different. To some of you he will send the Holy Spirit and some he will bathe with fire.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “‘I use water to baptize you with,’ said John, ‘a sign that you have had done with the bad way of doing, but the one who takes my place, what he will baptize you with is the Holy Spirit, and if not that, then fire. He is greater than I and even to just carry his shoes, I am not yet fitted as his servant.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “Then he continued saying, ‘There is (someone) higher (in rank, importance) than I who is following. And because of this highness of his, I am not worthy to even carry his shoes. (3:3) Only water is what I baptize-you -with so that it will be shown that you have repented of your sins, but as for him, he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• Tagbanwa: “I am baptizing you here in water, it being like a sign only of your repenting/being-sorry-for and dropping/giving-up your sins. But it’s true that the one who will come following/succeeding me, what he will baptize you with is the Espiritu Santo and fire. He really is superior to me. Even to remove his footwear, it’s not acceptable/possible for me to do it, because his greatness/importance is really very much.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
• Tenango Otomi: “Concerning myself, it is true that I baptize with water these people who say that they will separate from evil. But there is coming another one who will baptize with fire when the Holy Spirit strengthens you with power. That one is greater than I am. How could I ever compare to him.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
