complete verse (Titus 1:10)

Following are a number of back-translations of Titus 1:10:

  • Uma: “My intention in saying that to you, because there are many people who oppose our teachings, especially those who follow the custom of circumcision in the Law of Musa. They are unruly, and they deceive their companions with those useless teachings of theirs.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “Because many people are disobedient (lit. have hard heads) and do not follow/obey instruction, especially some of your (pl.) companions who trust in Isa who used to follow the Yahudi religion. Those people, there is no use in their words/speech and they only deceive people.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “The reason I say this is that there are many people who do not want to listen to proper teaching. Many of these are the Jewish believers who teach that it is necessary that we (incl.) believers obey the commands left behind by Moses. It is false, and there is no value in their teaching, however many have believed them.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “For there are many people who won’t-take-advice who are deceiving their companions by-means-of what they teach which has no value, especially Jews who have believed.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tagbanwa: “For the truth is, many are the disobedient there who tell-stories/relate-things which achieve nothing. They only deceive the people. Really like this is what the Jews are doing who say, it’s necessary to circumcize all the believers, even though they aren’t Jews.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
  • Tenango Otomi: “And now, there are many disobedient people, it is not worth anything in what they teach and they deceive the people. But the worst of those who do this are the Jews.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
