Converting the New Testament

Converting the printed text to audio
The New Testament

Willis Ott, Oral Translation Consultant, Storying and Orality, SIL
(The author carries the full responsibility for the views expressed.)

We suggest that, when a team has completed converting the script and making the recordings of "Vital truths", "Very important truths", and "Additional important truths" and they have begun distributing them, that they might revise those sets and combine those recordings with this set.

(However, the helps for the whole books are only planned at this point.
We will build them over the next several years.)

A team might choose to convert the entire books in any order that they like. Here we suggest that they translate the books with the following rating of importance.

Priority 1

   Romans      1 Corinthians     Galatians     Hebrews     Revelation

Priority 2

   Mark     Acts     Ephesians     Colossians     Philippians     1 John  

Priority 3

   Matthew      1 Thessalonians 

Priority 4

   2 Thessalonians     1 Peter      2 Peter

Priority 5

   2 Corinthians     James      Jude  

Priority 6

   Philemon     2 John     3 John
