Thanks to Wycliffe Associates, Bible translation is no longer limited to the difficult process of consultants traveling to remote locations, finding an adept translator, and engaging in the lengthy process of one-on-one translation. The Orlando, Florida based ministry has incorporated several technologies to rapidly quicken the translation process as well as improve interpretation accuracy and the safety of all involved. Their flagship MAST (Mobilized Assistance Supporting Translation) program is a new method for efficiently translating books of the Bible in parallel with great accuracy. By utilizing multiple translators without the dangers of repetition, omission or loss of linearity, a team of 26 translators can cut the regular New Testament translation timeline of years to an incredible two weeks. Bible Translation Acceleration Kits (BTAK) are the core of Wycliffe Associates’ rapid translation system, using advanced equipment to connect Bible translation consultants with on-site translators — a key ability for hard to reach or dangerous locales. To provide local believers with the translated scriptures, Print On Demand (POD) is a compact, high-speed, digital printing system that locals are trained to operate. “Worldwide Bible translation has taken a huge step forward thanks to these technologies.”
