Bible App Now Offers

The YouVersion community just reached a truly global milestone: The Bible App now offers more than 1,000 Bible versions, in more than 700 languages. The 1,000th version is Deftera Lfida Dzratawi (XEDNT), the first digital translation of the New Testament into Hdi (pronounced huh-DEE). Decades in the making, XEDNT was developed in collaboration with the people of a small village in the West African nation of Cameroon. Read on our blog about how its translators discovered a lost Hdi word that perfectly describes God's love!

Thank You!

We're thankful to be part of this with you, and we want to celebrate all God has done to make it possible:

150 Bible societies, publishers, and organizations generously partner with YouVersion to get the Bible to as many people as possible.
Dedicated translators have devoted much of their lives to making these words come alive in different languages.
Every day, people like you volunteer their time and talents to translate the Bible App's buttons, menus, notifications, and even Plans so others can enjoy it.
