RCV Tamil Translation

Tamil is the language in which we have the highest number of ministry books translated. It also has the highest number of saints in the Lord's recovery. The capital city of Tamilnadu also hosts the biggest church and highest number of local saints meeting in the local church. This team also has young saints who loves the Lord and gave themselves up to serve the Lord. A couple, husband and wife, are the translators for the text of the Bible. Each member in this team has an experience in translation even before they fully came into the literature service. They all learned Greek online and  passed the Greek exam that qualified them to translate the Recovery Version of the Bible.

The checking of the translated texts of this team was very good according to our brother who is an expert in Greek. He expressed how he felt about this team with an applause, "Excellent! You have done a good work." The translation work of this team did not need much adjustment as they did it quite well. The checking work finished faster than any other language checking so far. We could finish checking their works in just a day where other languages team took two days.

Besides, the church in Chennai where we have the literature office and all translators in Tamil resides are also burdened for the literature service. The church gave us hospitality as we carry out the checking work of the Recovery Version translation in this city. In addition, a brother from the church gave us his office conference room to carry out the checking of the Bible translation. Our coordination has been very sweet and the Lord has been blessing the literature service in this city.

May the faithful Lord who began the Tamil translation of the Recovery Version Bible also grace all those involved in the translation service to complete it in time.
