English Preface
This book is a translation of the New Testament into the Fly River dialect of the Tabo language of Papua New Guinea. It is being published simultaneously with the New Testament for the other half of the language, the speakers of the Aramia River dialect. The two dialects together presently comprise a total of about 3,400 speakers, most of whom live in villages located along the banks of the Aramia, Bamu, and Fly Rivers as well as Segero Creek.
We offer thanks to God who out of love for the Tabo people determined to give them this special gift. We are grateful to Him for the many, many individuals who, by their faithfulness in prayer and giving over the years, have enabled us to complete this work. Through them God has caused this portion of His Word to become a reality for the Tabo people in their heart language.
And so we dedicate this book to God for his eternal glory, for truly, “Unless He builds the house, its builders labour in vain” (Psalm 127.1). May He use the reading and the teaching of this Book of Life to continue building His house among the Tabo people, helping them not only to grow as a church in terms of numbers, but also in an ever increasing quality of faith.
