Following are a number of back-translations of Luke 16:17:

• Noongar: “‘The Law of Moses and the writings of the Prophets were working long ago and worked to the day of John the Baptist. After that day, the Good News of the Kingdom of God was told and many people force their way in.” (Source: Warda-Kwabba Luke-Ang)
• Uma: “But every word that was written in the Law of God definitely must happen. It is easier for the sky and the world to be-destroyed than for one word in the Law of the Lord not to happen.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
• Yakan: “But the law of Musa, it’s authority does not change. It is easier that earth and sky be rolled up than that one vowel-mark in the law should be changed.'” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “However, it’s not possible that the Law left behind by Moses be changed. Heaven and earth will cease to exist, but not even a small bit of the teaching of the Law can be changed.'” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “But it is nonetheless easier for earth and heaven to cease-to-exist than the shortest word in the law.'” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• Tagbanwa: “But it doesn’t mean that the strength has been removed from that which God commanded. For it’s true, the sky/heaven and world/land may be removed, but definitely not one point (of meaning) of what was said in these laws.” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
