Following are a number of back-translations of Titus 3:5:

• Uma: “Why did he lift us from the punishment of our sins? Did he lift us because our character was upright? Of course not. He lifted us only because-of the goodness of his own heart. Yesus Kristus died to redeem/take-the-place-for our sins, becoming the King who lifted us, with the result that God gave us the Holy Spirit, who no kidding is the greatness of his power in our lives. By the power of the Holy Spirit he cleaned us from our sins, he gave us new life and a new heart.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
• Yakan: “He rescued/saved us (incl.) not because we (incl.) do/did good but because he pities us (incl.). It is as if he washed the dirt in our (incl.) livers and we (incl.) are given new life by the Holy Spirit and we (incl.) are born again.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “he freed us from punishment. The reason he freed us was: not because of righteous acts which we (dual) did, but rather only because of his pity for us (dual). He freed us by means of cleansing us, which is our being born again by means of the power of the Holy Spirit who has given us new life.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “and he saved us. He-saved-us not due to the good we have done but rather his grace/mercy. He saved us through his washing us upon/at the Holy Spirit’s giving us new life and renewing (lit. making-new) us.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• Tagbanwa: “For he saved us, not because there are things we’ve done which are righteous/straight in his sight, but rather because of the big-size of his grace/mercy. He saved us, in which we were like born again through the work of the Espiritu Santo which is cleaning and making-new of our nature/ways.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
• Tenango Otomi: “God saved us. Not any good did we do in that we were saved. Rather he pitied us and therefore saved us. He took care of our sins. We were given a new life in that the Holy Spirit caused that we lived anew.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
