Kithaabul Muqaddhas

A translation of holy writings from the Tawrat, Zabur, Anbiya, & Injeel is now available in Dhivehi, the national language of the Republic of Maldives.

The book of Genesis begins with the story of Adam & Eve and how they went from a time of innocence when they were “naked and not ashamed” to being disobedient to God and cut off from his presence. That tragic condition now affects the entire human race. But God still loves us all. In this Dhivehi translation, you can read about how God showed his love to Noah, Abraham & Sarah, Ishmael, Isaac and his descendants. The story of Moses and how God rescued his people from Egypt is found in Exodus. There is a love story in the book of Ruth. King David’s story is found in 1 & 2 Samuel. The wise words of King Solomon in Proverbs give divine guidance for every-day life. For Dhivehin, the amazing sea adventure of Jonah is of special interest.

God’s love is most fully expressed in the life and teachings of Jesus as recorded by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Find out about early followers of Jesus in Acts of the Apostles. The Good News about Jesus spread throughout the ancient Roman Empire, and believers needed guidance in how to follow Jesus together. Apostles gave this guidance through their letters. In the letter to the Galatians we find out what true freedom is. Ephesians teaches us how to defeat Satan. Philippians tells us what our goal needs to be to have true joy. James describes true religion in his letter. Instructions for leaders are given in various letters. How does the ministry of Jesus relate to that of Moses? Is Jesus just a prophet? Find out more in the letter to the Hebrews. In his first letter, Peter teaches believers to expect ridicule, suffering, and other types of persecution, and also how to respond by trusting God and doing good to all. In Peter’s second letter, he warns us about false prophets and describes how this world will end on Judgment Day. We need to be prepared for Jesus' soon return. The letters of 1,2,3 John, Jude, Revelation will tell you how.

Dhivehi translations of other holy writings from the Tawrat, Zabur, Anbiya & Injeel are planned to be released in the future.
