The Bible in Indigenous Australian languages represents a profound expression of God’s love for the First Nations peoples of this land. From the early missionary efforts of the 19th century to today’s community-led translation projects, Scripture has been rendered into a growing number of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander languages. These translations affirm the unique cultural and linguistic identity of Indigenous communities, while opening the way for God’s Word to be heard in the heart language of each group. Reading or hearing the Bible in one’s own tongue brings a sense of belonging and deep connection, allowing the Good News of Jesus to resonate with cultural traditions and ways of storytelling. At Koorong, we are honoured to provide Indigenous language Bibles that celebrate the richness of Australia’s heritage and extend the invitation to encounter God’s truth in the language that speaks most clearly to the heart.
