Looking for something...

Postby Slater » Thu Sep 16, 2004 12:17 am

does anyone know where I can find a Japanese Bible (KJV)? I've been looking all night and haven't found one... downloadable or otherwise doesn't matter... It would be a major help if anyone knew where!

Edit:
Here is another site, though it says the ‘Living Bible’ (I don’t know much about that translation) I thought I would list it anyway. ;)

Depend on it. God's work done in God's way will never lack God's supply. He is too wise a God to frustrate His purposes for lack of funds, and He can just as easily supply them ahead of time as afterwards, and He much prefers doing so.
- J. Hudson Taylor
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times." It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach. He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

The Gideons also make a dual language Japanese/English bible. My group gave some out while we were in Japan last November. I believe the english was NKJV tho. I don't believe the Japanese verson would be called KJV however. If I can get a link to it I will, but for now know that yes they do make them. It might have been New Testamant only tho. :x

....That's peculiar... Maybe they have a desire to show how many languages they know?... I'm joking...

nono... The Living "translation" (It's not really a translation) is the no.1 thing we're trying to avoid... KJV is what we thirst for.

You can get a KJV in JAPANESE?! That seems impossible. . . (because the language in the KJV is obselete in English so I imagine it would be REALLY hard to tranlsate.)
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

I once had a Korean version of KJV, so I don't think finding one in Japanese is much harder to find.

I suggest you to start in one of those Asian bookshops, like Kinokuniya or however they're spelled.
