Following are a number of back-translations of Romans 11:21:
- Uma: “For if God discarded the Jews, who were like the branches that were on the tree from-the-start, don’t you say/think that he won’t have the heart [lit., it will not be there at his heart] to discard you too if you are rebellious/rejecting!” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
- Yakan: “If the first/original branches, were cut off by God, that means the Yahudi, don’t think that he will not also cut you off.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
- Western Bukidnon Manobo: “because if God broke off the true branches, which is to say, the Jews, how much more will He break off branches from the olive tree which was not planted, if you who are not Jews do not believe.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
- Kankanaey: “Because if God didn’t put-up-with the original branches who were the Jews but rather removed them, neither will he put-up-with you.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
- Tenango Otomi: “If God has parted from the Jews because they did not believe in Christ, the same for you then, if you do not believe in Christ he will part from you.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
