The Bible Society of Nigeria (BSN) is among the 145 member united Bible Societies working in over 200 countries and territories to put the Bible in the hearts and hands of the people. In Nigeria, the BSN translates the Bible into Nigerian languages for the benefit of those who cannot read the English Bible. So far, it has translated the Bible into 27 languages and currently working on 10 different translation projects.
In keeping with her determination to break every known barriers that make the Word of God inaccessible, the organisation is also translating the Bible in the Nigerian Sign Language for the deaf, and making Braille Bible available for the blind. This is in pursuance of her mission to make the Holy Bible available and affordable for Nigerians in their preferred languages and formats helping engage with the Word of God through life-transforming programmes.
The organisation desires to do more Bible translation, but is being constrained by the huge cost involved. It costs a minimum of N120m to complete a Bible translation project if achieved in eight years, the Sign Language for the deaf is four times more expensive. To help more Nigerians have the Bible in their mother tongues and have God speak in such languages, we seek your partnership to make this possible.
