Balinese Version [1]

of the Scriptures. Balinese is a language spoken in the island of Bali, which lies to the east of Java; being about seventy miles long, and containing a population of about three quarters of a million. It is but recently that the people of Bali received a part of the Gospel in their vernacular, viz. the Gospel of St. Mark; the translation of which was undertaken by the Rev. R. Van Eck, of the Utrecht Missionary Society, in 1875, and printed in 1877. (B. P.)
