4 God so luvd da world…
In a bid to increase readership, The Bible Society in Australia has launched a translation of all 31,173 verses of the Bible in the modern, abbreviated language of text messages, reports The Associated Press. The new modern format follows on the heels of the Hip Hop Bible, a recorded spoken-word version of the Holy Book.
Bible Society spokesperson Michael Chant says the SMS version remains faithful to the grammar of the International Contemporary English Version of the Bible and that the spelling is the only thing that has changed. At a rate of about 150 characters per verse and one verse per message, sending the entire Bible by SMS would take more than 30,000 messages.
