Lithuanian...
"Lithuanian is spoken by most of the estimated 3
million inhabi-
tants of the Lithuanian Republic of the Soviet Union. The
Lithuanians are a Baltic-stock people, as are also the Latvians and
the Old Prussians (Borussi), Western Balts of the east Prussian
area, who were mostly wiped out by the Teutonic Knights in the
13th century and had disappeared as a separate people by 1700.
Lithuania, one of the most powerful states of Medieval Europe,
maintained strong political ties with Poland, but during the late
18th century it came under Russian
control. In 1918 Lithuania
was proclaimed independent, but after two decades of turbulent
self-rule, it became a constituent Republic of the Soviet Union
in 1940.
Lithuanian is a Baltic language, related to Latvian and Latgalian
within the Baltic group. There are numerous regional dialects,
including the Samogit usage." --1000 Tongues, 1972 [Info only]

"Another edition of Bretkius's
version of the New Testament, with the addition of the Psalms,
was printed at Königsberg in 1727, and the Psalms separately, at the
same place, in 1728. As it was
found, however, that this version was written in the dialect of Upper
Lithuania, rather than in that
spoken in Prussia, the Prussian king, Frederic William, ordered the Rev. John
Jacob Quandt, his first
chaplain at Königsberg, to undertake a new translation of the whole
Bible. Mr. Quandt, with the
assistance of twelve other clergymen, completed a version of the New
Testament and Psalms in 1727,
and the entire Bible was completed and printed at Königsberg in 1735.
The translation was made
chiefly from Luther's German
version, and aid was drawn from Bretkius's version. A second
edition
of the Bible, with the German text, was published at Königsberg in 1755.
The Psalms had been
separately printed in 1728, and the New Testament in 1749."--The Bible

"The first complete Lithuanian Bible was published
in 1735 in
Karaliaucius, Lithuania. It was a Protestant translation based
on traditional texts.
A charismatic group, The Word of
Faith Bible Center,
published a Bible in 1996. Their statement is that it was a
revision of the 1735 Bible..
This Bible is made available by the Russian Bible Society.
My. Ron Peldin has said: "This is the Bible that has
been agreed upon by the independent Baptist national pastors,
mies., my. pastors, lay workers and the general
public as the best translation currently available in the
Lithuanian language."" --Phil Stringer [Info only]
