Djambarrpuyŋu
‘Welcome’
Scripture Resources
God-Waŋarrwu Walŋamirr Dhäruk—’The Creator God’s Living Word’ (The Djambarrapuyŋu New Testatemnt) was dedicated in 2008 as hundreds gathered on Elcho Island to celebrate a translation project running over thirty years with a team of 10 translators—8 of whom were indigenous (translation team pictured below). There is ongoing translation of portions of the Old Testament.
The cover has a special design in the ‘Yolŋu’ style of east Arnhem Land. The font style and size were specially chosen to enhance readability.
