Following are a number of back-translations of Romans 5:12:

• Uma: “Sin is in the world because of one person who broke God’s command, that is Adam. And because of that sin of Adam’s, the result is there is death in the world. From that sin of Adam’s, all his descendants became sinners, with the result that all mankind must die.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
• Yakan: “Na, why is there sin in the world? This is how it went: at the beginning it was just one human being who sinned, Apu’ Adam (Grandfather, a title always used for Adam). That was the beginning of sin in the world. Because there was now sin in the world, there is also death in the world. Therefore all human beings finally die because all sin.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “The reason evil behavior came to be here on the earth is because of the transgression long ago of one person who was Adam. And God caused that he should die because of what he did. And also because of that, death spread all over the world. And everybody dies because there is not anybody who doesn’t do evil.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “Let us consider the results of what Adan did and what Cristo did. Adan sinned long ago and that was the beginning of people’s sinning. Because of his sin moreover, he was condemned to die, so starting from then, all people die, because all people sin.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• Tenango Otomi: “Here on earth just one person sinned at the beginning. And thus there began to be death, because of the sin that was committed. Therefore now, concerning all the people who live, all die because all commit sin.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
