More Bible translation going on now than ever before in history
December 2006
According to statistics recently released by Wycliffe International, Bible translation in 1941 languages is now in progress across the world by all agencies!
Wycliffe are involved in 1379 (71%) of these in 97 countries, serving over 600M people.
Work on 2286 languages remains to start. This represents 196M people.
Since Oct 1 1999, in response by all partners to Vision 2025, projects have started in 539 languages - a three fold increase in pace compared to before.
2403 languages have some or all of the Bible. Of these, 426 have an adequate Bible; 1,115 have an adequate New Testament; 862 have at least one book of the Bible.
Can you help make Vision 2025 a reality by
going, praying and/or giving?
