Following are a number of back-translations of Revelation 12:12:
- Uma: “That is why you are glad, you who dwell in heaven. But how-sad/pity-on-you, you who dwell on the earth or in/on the sea. Because the King of Evil-ones has descended to you. No kidding his anger, because he knows that his opportunity is only for a little while.'” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
- Yakan: “Therefore be glad all you who live here in heaven. But you there on earth and on the sea you are really to be pitied, because the leader of demons has come down to you. He is really very angry because he knows that his end will soon come.'” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
- Western Bukidnon Manobo: “You who live in heaven, rejoice! But as for you on the earth and in the sea, pity you! For the demon which is Satan has come down to you. He is very angry because he knows that the remaining time for him to act wickedly is very short.'” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
- Kankanaey: “Therefore all of you who are in heaven be-happy, but you who are on earth and in the ocean are to-be-pitied, because Satanas has descended to where you are, and extreme is his anger, because he knows that his remaining time is little.'” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
- Tagbanwa: “Therefore the happiness here in heaven is now really great. Be happy all you who live here. But as many as live there in the world/land and in the ocean, really far-from-ordinary suffering will be experienced by you. You are to be pitied for this Satanas has now been caused to go there. His anger has really become much worse for he now knows that he has little time left.'” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
- Tenango Otomi: “Now there will be joy in heaven. All who live there will rejoice. But upon the earth, pity the people who live on the land those who are on the sea. Pity them because there on the earth is where the devil has come to live. And very much is he angry in that he knows it is a short time before he is to be judged.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
