Following are a number of back-translations of Revelation 5:12:
- Uma: “They cheered/shouted-in-unison loudly, they said: ‘The Lamb that was slaughtered, it is very fitting we honor him, we praise him, we make-big his name, we talk-of his being strong, we speak-of his being rich, we speak-about his being wise [lit., clear], and we recount his power/authority!'” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
- Yakan: “They sang loudly, they said, ‘The Sheep that was killed is worthy to be praised. Great is his authority. Deep is his knowledge/wisdom. He is very strong/powerful and he is really rich. Let us (incl.) show him respect. Let us (incl.) honor him. Let us (incl.) praise him.'” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
- Western Bukidnon Manobo: “They all sang and their singing was very loud, they said, ‘The young sheep which allowed Himself to be killed is worthy to be praised because His power is great. His wisdom is great; His strength is great. He has great possessions. We honor Him, we respect Him, and we praise Him!'” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
- Kankanaey: “They raised their voices singing, ‘The Sheep whom they killed, he is worthy that his authority, his wealth, his wisdom and his power be acknowledged. May he be the one who is honored/worshipped and made-high and spoken-highly-of.'” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
- Tagbanwa: “They were praising at full volume (lit. using up all their voice), saying, ‘This Young Sheep who caused/allowed his life to be severed, he is really acceptable to receive praise, praising his supernatural-power, wealth, and far-from-ordinary wisdom/understanding and his ability. It is really necessary that he be the one who is honored and praised.'” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
- Tenango Otomi: “Very loudly they said: ‘This Lamb who was killed, it is right that the people praise him. They will say that he is the one who has all power and he rules all the things there are, he has all wisdom. Therefore it is right that he be honored and praised.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
