It's estimated that the Good Book can now be read in 318 different languages around the world – and if that's not enough, then bits of it are available in a further 2182 languages.

But that's only the official, churchy stuff. There's also the Bible for Scousers, black rappers, Cockneys, and even Captain Kirk's deadliest foes, the Klingons. The evil beings are about to get not one, but two translations of their very own. Join us on this page as we look over the shoulders of all these groups for a weekly-updated Bible reading from some of the world's greatest Unauthorized Versions.

The Almighty said: “Lighten up!”

Now when the Almighty was first down with His program, He made the heavens and the earth. The earth was a fashion misfit, being so uncool and dark, but the Spirit of the Almighty came down real tough, so that He simply said, 'Lighten up!' And that light was right on time. And the Almighty liked what He saw and let the light hang out a while before it was dark again. He laid out a name for the light, calling it 'day' time and the dark he called 'night' time so that all around it made up the first day…

The Almighty made two big lights and they did shine on the earth. The big light, he called the sun and it rested itself over the earth during the day, and the little light, which He called the moon, cruised through the night. The Almighty added the little lights called stars and put them in the sky and they did their share of the lighting, so that now we have a day and a night for real and the Almighty was feeling mighty fine on the fourth day…

The Almighty finally finished making the earth and was right on target with all that He had made. So on the big seven, the Almighty said, 'Enough!' And the Almighty caused this day to be a special day 'cuz this was the day He'd finished His program.
