More Bible translation going on now than ever before in history
December 2007
According to statistics recently released by Wycliffe International, Bible translation in 1953 languages is now in progress across the world by all agencies!
Wycliffe are involved in 1415 (72%) of these in 97 countries, serving over 550M people.
Work on 2251 languages remains to start. This represents 193M people.
Since Oct 1 1999, in response by all partners to Vision 2025, projects have started in 592 languages - a three fold increase in pace compared to before.
2426 languages have some or all of the Bible. Of these, 429 have an adequate Bible; 1,144 have an adequate New Testament; 853 have at least one book of the Bible.
Can you help make Vision 2025 a reality by going, praying and/or giving?
