WHY BIBLE TRANSLATION?
Imagine longing to know God—but being unable to
access His Word.
Today, more than 7,300 languages are used worldwide. Tremendous progress in Bible translation means that communities all over the world are now experiencing the hope, dignity and transformation that comes with access to God’s Word.
But the work isn’t finished. Millions of people are still waiting for their very first Scripture. Even a single verse can open the door to understanding God’s love in a whole new way. This is why Bible translation matters.
This is why your partnership makes a difference.
God’s Word changes everything
When people finally access Scripture in their own language, transformation begins—hearts are healed, communities grow stronger, and faith deepens.
Bible translation leads to lasting change through four key pillars that guide everything we do.
BIBLE TRANSLATION
Bible translation allows people to engage with God’s Word in a language that speaks to their heart.
LITERACY
Learning to read and write enables people to experience Scripture for themselves, and opens up a world of opportunity.
ENGAGEMENT WITH SCRIPTURE
Transformation begins when people meaningfully engage with Scripture through study, song, art, apps or videos.
CAPACITY BUILDING
Building capacity fosters sustainable ministries, equipping the local church.
How we work
As a member of the Wycliffe Global Alliance, we’re part of a global movement that’s advancing Bible translation, literacy, capacity-building, and activities that encourage meaningful engagement with translated Scriptures.
We partner with local churches, translators and global alliances to ensure that each project is locally led, culturally relevant and sustainable.
Our goal is not only to translate Scripture, but to help communities read it, use it and live it—long after the project is complete.
All people should have access to God's Word in the language they know best.
You can help ensure everyone has access to God's Word in a language that speaks to their heart.
