complete verse (Romans 6:11)

Following are a number of back-translations of Romans 6:11:

  • Uma: “So also we must say in our hearts: ‘I died together with Kristus Yesus, there is no longer any connection of mine with sin. I live and follow the desire of God from now on because of my connection with Kristus Yesus.'” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
  • Yakan: “Likewise you (pl.) should/must also consider yourselves like dead people who no longer can sin. And consider yourselves now as if you are now people who have been made alive again; and because you already follow/obey Isa Almasi all your deeds ought to praise God.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
  • Western Bukidnon Manobo: “And in the same way also, you must remember that since we are dead with Christ, our being troubled by our sins has also been removed from us. And by means also of Jesus Christ, we have been given new life and it’s necessary that this new life of ours is also a reason for God to be praised.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
  • Kankanaey: “So we also, we should count ourselves as having truly died where sin is concerned (lit. if concerning sin) but as being alive where our serving God is concerned because of our being-united-with Cristo Jesus.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
  • Tenango Otomi: “The same for us now, let us do the same. We will do that we are finished with sin because we are walking with Christ. We now live to do the will of God.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
