Following are a number of back-translations of Romans 5:21:

• Uma: “Formerly, sin was what was powerful in the lives of all people, with the result that all people must be punished with death and separated from God. But as of now, the grace [white insides] of God is what is powerful in our lives. From his grace God says we are straight in his sight and he gives us good life forever because of the mediation of Yesus Kristus our Lord.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
• Yakan: “So-then, formerly sin was strong, therefore all human-beings sinned and died. But now because of the love and pity of God, everyone who trusts Isa Almasi is forgiven and considered straight by God. And he gives them life without end in heaven because of what Isa Almasi, our (incl.) Leader has done.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “Before, as for us (incl.) human beings, it was not possible that we not sin. And because of this, we die; however, now by means of God considering us righteous, God shows us his kindness so that we might be given life forever by means of Jesus Christ, who is our Lord.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “It is true that sin was ruling mankind so that they would die and be separated from God forever. But now, it is God’s grace which wins-the-victory and rules, because due-to what Jesu Cristo our Lord did, it-is-possible for God to count people as righteous so that they will have life that has no end.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• Tenango Otomi: “Therefore the sin grabbed our hearts and this brought to us death. But now in that the grace of God grabbed our hearts, this has brought to us the new life because now our sins have been cleared by means of our Lord Jesus Christ.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
