• Yakan: “Paul said to Ananiyas, ‘God will punish you. You are good only on the outside but your heart is evil.

• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “And Paul said to him, ‘As for you whose worship of God is a lie, surely God is going to punish you.

• Kankanaey: “Whereupon Pablo said to him, ‘You (sing.) pretend judge, in-the-future indeed (prophetic formula) God will also slap you (sing.)!

• Tagbanwa: “After being slapped, Pablo spoke. He said to Ananias, ‘It really will happen that you also are caused hurt, but God will be the one hurting you. You only make a pretence of your following/obeying him. For there you now are, sitting, supposedly to judge me according to the laws, but you now are the one breaking this law, for you ordered that my mouth be slapped.'” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)

Following are a number of back-translations of Acts 23:6:

• Uma: “Paulus knew that those leaders, some of them followed the teaching of the Saduki people, and some followed the teaching of Parisi people. That is why he spoke loudly to them all, saying: ‘Relatives! I am a Parisi, and also a descendant of Parisi people. The reason I have come here to be judged now is because I believe [emphatic] that people who die will certainly live again.'” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
• Yakan: “So-then, when Paul observed that some of the council members were Sadduseo and some were Pariseo, he spoke loudly, he said, ‘My brothers, I am a Pariseo, and my parents are Pariseo also.

• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “Then Paul saw that some of the elders who were gathered there were Sadducees, and some of them were Pharisees, and so he raised his voice saying, ‘Brethren, I’m a Pharisee, and Pharisees also were my ancestors. The reason why I am brought before you today is because I believe that in the future God will raise the dead.'” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)
• Kankanaey: “When that was so, since Pablo knew that the leaders were divided, some being Saducees, some Pharisees, he raised (lit. made-strong) his voice saying, ‘My brothers, I am a Pharisee. My ancestors are also Pharisees. Therefore I expect that the dead will live again, and that is the reason for your trying me today.'” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• Tagbanwa: “Well, since Pablo was aware that as for those Jews who were members of the Sanedrin, one part was Saduceo, one part Pariseo, he said to them all, ‘My fellow-Jews, as for me, I also am a Pariseo. So were my ancestors. I am being interrogated today because I am sure that God will make alive those who have died.'” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)

But as for the Pharisees, they believe that there will be a resurrection and that there are spirits and that there are messengers of God.” (Source: Western Bukidnon Manobo Back Translation)

Perhaps there really was an angel or a ghost who spoke to him.'” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
• Yakan: “So-then their shouting became strong and some teachers of the religious law from among the Pariseo stood and really argued. They said, ‘We (excl.) have not found any evil in this man. Perhaps there really was a spirit/soul or an angel that spoke to him.'” (Source: Yakan Back Translation)
• Western Bukidnon Manobo: “Therefore their shouting at each other got louder and louder, and then the Pharisees who were teachers of the law stood up and said, ‘There is nothing bad that we know of that this man has done.

• Kankanaey: “Therefore they excessively made-a-racket. Some of the Pharisees who were teachers of the law, they stood-up to insist-on their opinions (lit. thoughts), and they said saying, ‘We (excl.) know of absolutely no sin/crime of this-one. If an angel or other unseen-one has spoken-to him (appreciation/empathy particle), is it indeed-the-case that (RQ implying of course not) that is bad?'” (Source: Kankanaey Back Translation)
• Tagbanwa: “When it was now like that, their words became really loud for they were fighting/quarreling now. The explainers of law who were members of the Pariseo stood up. They said, ‘There is indeed nothing we can find to hold against this person. If supposing he truly was spoken to by an angel or someone else from heaven, of course it’s not a sin.'” (Source: Tagbanwa Back Translation)
