You can retrieve all of the string keys by reading in English.lproj/Localizable.strings as a dictionary and fetching its keys:

NSString *stringsPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"Localizable" ofType:@"strings"];
NSDictionary *dictionary = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithContentsOfFile:stringsPath];

To get each language's translation, you can iterate over the languages for each English key and use NSLocalizedStringFromTableInBundle:

for (NSString *language in [[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] objectForKey:@"AppleLanguages"]) {
    NSBundle *bundle = [NSBundle bundleWithPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:language ofType:@"lproj"]];
    NSLog(@"%@: %@", language, NSLocalizedStringFromTableInBundle(@"Testing", @"Localizable", bundle, nil));
}
