New Testament (Turkish)

The New Testament from the Turkish Bible Society has a rich history that reflects the linguistic and cultural evolution of Turkey. The first translation into Ottoman Turkish took place in the 17th century, but it wasn't until 19th century that the first printed edition appeared.
In the late 20th century, significant language reforms, including a change to the Latin script, necessitated a new translation of the Bible.
The United Bible and the Translation Trust worked together to create a translation that would be understandable in contemporary Turkish.
The complete Bible was dedicated in 2001, reflecting the language that had evolved significantly over sixty years.
The Turkish Bible Society's New Testament is part of the modern translation effort, offering a version of the scriptures that are accessible to the Turkish-speaking population today, taking into account the significant linguistic changes that have occurred over the past century.
