The New Testament online L/R in Samoan - The New Testament (Mark 9) L/R in Samoan is also a free app for iPhone, iPad and Android. You can download the huge, over 500mb zipped, mp3 audio here: Faith Comes by Hearing. For most languages it's just the New Testament in audio version. Some languages have 2 versions a "dramatized" version with sound effects, background music and different voices, and a non-dramatized straight read. Some languages just have one or the other version available. By searching you can also find the text. I am not particularly religious myself, but I do know the Bible fairly well and find it can be quite helpful in language learning. If I ever decide to learn Guinea-Bissau Creole or St Lucian Creole- there's an audio Bible on the site. For some rare languages with few resources available, the Bible may be the only L/R you can get easily. While the language in English and other major languages may be unnecessarily pompous and old fashioned, the audio Bibles of Faith Comes by hearing tend to be more accessible modern language. For many languages the translations are quite new. The Haitian Creole translation used on the site was done in 1999. I've got it on my phone as a free ap.
