English Swahili Bible

The Swahili Bible, commonly known as "Biblia Takatifu," is a translation of the Bible into the Swahili language, which is spoken widely in East Africa. The translation effort began in the late 19th century and has resulted in several versions of the Swahili Bible, including both Protestant and Catholic editions.

One of the most widely used versions is the "Biblia Takatifu" (Protestant Edition), which was translated primarily by missionaries and scholars. It includes both the Old and New Testaments and is widely distributed and used by Swahili-speaking Christians across East Africa.

In addition to the Protestant edition, there are also Catholic editions of the Swahili Bible, which include the additional books recognized by the Catholic Church as part of the Old Testament canon.

The Swahili Bible has been instrumental in spreading Christianity and facilitating religious education and worship among Swahili-speaking communities in East Africa. It's available in various formats, including print, digital, and audio versions, making it accessible to a wide range of people.
