Projects

Four projects, one family

Each one takes a different step: translating the text, reading what the church has written about it, keeping it in memory, and using it to learn a new language.

01 · Translate

Open Word Bible

A public-domain Bible translated from Hebrew and Greek, with the reasoning behind every sentence open for anyone to read.

About the projectopenwordbible.org ↗
  • Three levels for every passage: literal, balanced and readable.
  • Each sentence carries a reasoning record: the original words, a literal gloss and every translation decision with its reason.
  • Original-language text comes from openly licensed source data, never typed by hand.
  • AI drafts stay marked as drafts until a named reviewer approves them.

  • Built first for missionaries preparing to serve.
  • Swahili is the first language.
