Discover the New Testament Reimagined Through the Poetic Language of Native Storytellers:

  • "The Great Spirit loves all creation so deeply that he gave his Son--the only Son who represents him fully. All who trust in him and his way will not come to a bad end but will share in the life of the world to come that never fades away, filled with beauty and harmony." John 3:16
  • "Love is patient and kind. Love is never jealous. It does not brag or boast. It is not puffed up or big-headed. Love does not act in shameful ways, nor does it care only about itself. It is not hot-headed, nor does it keep track of wrongs done to it. Love is not happy with lies and injustice, but truth makes its heart glad. Love keeps walking even when carrying a heavy load. Love keeps trusting, never loses hope, and stands firm in hard times. The road of love has no end." 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

The First Nations Version was created through a collaborative effort involving a translation council of twelve Native elders, pastors, and young adults, ensuring authenticity and cultural integrity. With each page, you'll find yourself captivated by the simplicity and depth of the narrative, uncovering new layers of meaning in these timeless passages. Whether you're familiar with the Bible or seeking a fresh perspective, The First Nations Version offers a unique opportunity for reflection and understanding.
