Fulfulde Borgu New Testament Portions (FUESIM)
Overview
This collection contains portions of the New Testament in Borgu Fulfulde, published in 2011 by SIM International. The included books are Matthew, John, Romans, 1 Corinthians, Galatians through Colossians, 2 Thessalonians through Revelation (21 books total). Borgu Fulfulde is a distinct dialect of Fulfulde spoken by over 750,000 Fulani people in Benin, who previously had to use the Cameroon Fulfulde Bible in their Bible school in N'Dali. [1] The translation was produced by an SIM team working with the UEEB (Union des Eglises Evangéliques du Bénin). The full New Testament was subsequently completed and published, and by early 2024 the Old Testament translation was also completed in collaboration with The Seed Company, resulting in a complete Bible in Borgu Fulfulde.
