complete verse (Philippians 3:5)

Following are a number of back-translations of Philippians 3:5:

  • Uma: “I was circumcised at the age of eight days according to the Law of Musa. I am a real Yahudi person, a descendant of the Israel people, from the family of Benyamin. Before I believed in the Lord Yesus, I followed the Law of Musa according to the teaching of the Parisi people.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “Because I, when I was only eight days on the floor (idiom for having been born) I was already circumcised according to the Yahudi custom. My parents were descendants of Benjamin one of the children of our (excl.) forefather Isra’il. I am really a pure Yahudi. Concerning the law written by Musa, I really followed/obeyed it because I am a Pariseo, the ones who defend/take-the-side-of the law.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “For eight days after I was born I was circumcised; my parents, they were descendants of Benjamin, who was the son of our ancestor Israel. I was a Jew through and through. I thoroughly observed the Law left behind by Moses, for I was a Pharisee.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “Because listen to this: I was circumcised on my eighth day, for I was born a Judio, a descendant of Benjamin who was a child of Israel. I am also a pure Hebreo, because my parents are Hebreo, and my language and customs are also Hebreo. As regards also the law that God gave to Moses, I have-been-thorough in obeying it, because I am a Fariseo.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tagbanwa: “For when I was born, when it was the eighth day I was circumcized. And I really am a pureblood Hebreo, a true descendant of Israel, of the clan of the descendants of Benjamin. Well in talking of obeying the laws of Moises, I am very much a Pariseo.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
  • Tenango Otomi: “On the eighth day after I was born, I was marked with the circumcision. Because I am a Jew. My ancestor was Benjamin. I was a Jew by birth, and my language is that of Hebrew. That which I explained about the law which the Jews follow is the belief which the Pharisees have.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
