The next Wave of Bible translators is coming

Many Lutheran Bible Translators’ partner institutions train individuals in linguistics, Biblical languages, and translation studies. Local language speakers train for ministry while staying in their home country or a nearby region. Graduates of these institutions serve in translation and literacy programs in their area.

Trained local personnel produce higher quality work in a shorter amount of time. These workers translate God’s Word in a clear and culturally appropriate manner because of their familiarity with the language and culture.

Students interested in Bible translation need your prayers and financial support.
