Following are a number of back-translations of Romans 1:9:

• Uma: “I work with a whole heart, doing the work that God has given me, announcing the Good News that speaks of his Child. And God knows the contents of my heart, he knows how I always mention you in my prayers.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
• Yakan: “I am always asking God for/on behalf of you (pl.). God knows that this saying of mine (what I am saying) is true. I work for him wholeheartedly (lit. my liver entirely), I proclaim the good news about his Son/Child.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “Because of God I will do as much as I can so that I might spread the Good News about His son. And He is the one who knows that I am always praying to Him for you.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
