Milestone Reached as 700th Full Bible Translation Completed
This is so very exciting! It represents the tremendous work that Bible translators are doing across the world. Every time the Bible translated into another language, we know that for the first time the people in that language group can fully access the complete picture of God’s story.
The 700th Bible means that 5.7 billion people who speak 700 languages now have the Bible in the language that speaks to them best. That is a remarkable figure and continues to grow. However, there are still about 1.5 billion people, or about one in five, who do not have the Bible in their language.
