Following are a number of back-translations of Matthew 5:20:

  • Uma: “So, I say to you, if you do not become upright in God’s sight, you will certainly not become his people in his Kingdom. And your uprightness must surpass the uprightness of the religion teachers and the Parisi people.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “I tell you if your perseverence to follow the commands of God is not exceeding the perseverence of the teachers of the religious law and the Pariseo, you will not get into the ruling/kingdom of God.'” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “I tell you that you can only be ruled over by God if you do what God wants. And you must be far more faithful in carrying this out then the teachers of the law and the Pharisee people. (law is substituted hereafter for system of commands.)” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “I thus say to you that it is not possible for you to be added to the ruling of God if you are not more righteous than the Pharisees and teachers of the law.'” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tagbanwa: “This which I am saying to you is really true, that if your obeying of the will of God is only the same as the obeying by the Pariseo and explainers of law, you really won’t be able to enter this kingdom of God.'” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
  • Tenango Otomi: “I tell you that if you want to enter there where God rules, it is wanted that much better do you walk than the way the teachers of the law and Pharisees walk.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
