Bible published in North Korean dialect, English

International missionary group publishes Bible through cooperation with defectors, distributing it in N.Korea via balloon

Voice of Martyrs (VOM), an international missionary group, on Wednesday announced the publication of the first Bible translated into both English and the North Korean dialect.

The North Korean Bible is based entirely off of the Korean Christian Federation’s official publication, with only a few terms altered. The English version has been adopted from Wycliffe Mission Assist, the most readable and widely disseminated version.
