CWN Editor's Note: An ecumenical team on the Malaysian state of Sarawak has announced the publication of two new Bibles in the Bahasa Malaysia language.
Published by the Malaysian Bible Society in collaboration with the Association of Churches in Sarawak, the two editions use different approaches to translation: one (the Alkitab Kudus Malaysia) adhering as closely as possible to the original words of the Scriptures, the other (Alkitab Berita Baik Edisi Studi) using the “dynamic equivalence” method in a bid to make the Bible more accessible.
