Following are a number of back-translations of Romans 6:21:

• Uma: “What blessing did you receive from that former life of yours? You are just ashamed of those former deeds of yours. Deeds like that bring death that separates you from God.” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
• Yakan: “What was the use of your doing that sinning, and when you remember (it) now you are ashamed? There is none. For the result of those deeds is hell.” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “And there was no value that you go out of doing, long ago, those ugly things that now you are very much ashamed of. Because if a person continues doing things like that, death without end is what he will come to.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “But what perhaps did you gain from what you were doing previously that you are now ashamed of? Absolutely nothing, because the outcome of those-things that were done was that you would die and be separated from God to be punished.” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• Tenango Otomi: “Just what did we gain by the evil we did? Because it was completely shameful what we did, all the death went with it.” (Source: Tenango Otomi Back Translation)
