BSL Bible translation project
The BSL Bible Translation Project has been set up to translate the whole Christian Bible into British Sign Language. Teams of bilingual Deaf and hearing people, alongside Bible experts, have begun to translate parts of the Bible. The translation will be checked at every stage to ensure it is consistent with the language of the original texts and we hope it will become an accurate, well-used resource for all BSL users.
