Following are a number of back-translations of Revelation 8:3:
- Uma: “From there, there was another angel [who] came to stand at the offering burning table. That angel carried bowl [made] of gold for burning incense and he was given much incense to burn along with the prayers of all the people who are God’s portion. He burned the incense and prayers on top of the incense-burning table [made] of gold in front of the Seat of God.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
- Yakan: “Then there was a different angel carrying a golden censer. He went and stood next to the altar-(for-animal-sacrifice). Much incense was given to him so that the fragrance of the incense would mingle with the prayers of all the people belonging to God while he burnt the incense there on the golden table in front of the throne.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
- Western Bukidnon Manobo: “And there was another angel who had a golden bowl filled with sweet smelling stuff, and he came near and stood near the altar of sacrifice. A great amount of sweet smelling incense was given to him so that he might, there on the golden altar, mix it with the prayers of believers.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
- Kankanaey: “After-that another angel arrived who was holding a gold container of incense, and he went and stood by the gold-plated altar where-they -burned incense that was located before the throne. He was given much incense to be added to the prayers of all God’s people to be burned on the altar to be offered to God.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
- Tagbanwa: “And then there was another angel who came bringing a gold container of incense. He stood in front of the altar of incense which is in front of that king’s seat. I saw that he was given a large amount of incense to burn there on that gold altar, at the same time as he would cause to go up the prayers of God’s people.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
- Tenango Otomi: “Another angel came there, carrying an incense burner all of gold. He stood at the altar. He was given very much incense to fill the incense burner, so that he would place the incense on the altar of gold.
