This translation of the Holy Bible is originally based upon Henry Martyn's
|
|
translation of the Bible in Persian. After repeated updates it was finally
|
|
published in the current form in 1896 and again, with new headlines in 1996
|
|
and subsequently by Elam Ministries with new headings and cross references.
|
|
These headlines are not included in this version. It is currently in use
|
|
within most Iranian and Afghani churches under the name "Tarjumeh-ye Ghadeem"
|
|
or "Old Translation". It is famous for its literary quality and faithfulness
|
|
to the original texts. Its original copyright holder, the Iranian Bible
|
|
Society, was dissolved by force by the Iranian post-revolutionary government
|
|
in 1990. In all likelihood this text is now public domain simply due to its
|
|
age, but users are asked to respect the International Bible Society's request
|
|
to use this text only in non-commercial ways until full clarity on its legal
|
|
status has been obtained.
