Sindhi...
"Sindhi is spoken by about 8 million people, 80 per
cent of whom
live in Sindh, southeastern West
Pakistan, and the rest in adjacent
areas of northern Gujarat State,
India. An Indo-Aryan tongue it
is closely related to Lahnda and merges
into Marwari Rajasthani.
The Lari dialect is the standard form upon which the literary
idiom is based. The Banya (Baniya) character used for Sindhi is a
type of Lahnda script. Most of the Sindhi, however, are Musl_ms
and use Arabic script."--1000

"The Serampore mies. had
commenced a translation of the Scriptures into this dialect as
early as 1815; but various circumstances impeded the progress of the work,
and it was not till 1825
that the first part of the version, consisting of the Gospel of St. Matthew,
was committed to the press.
We are not informed of how many copies this edition consisted, and it does
not appear that any other
portion of this version was afterwards published. A
translation of the same Gospel into Sindhee has
been recently made by Captain G. Stack, and an edition of 500 copies printed
by the Bombay Auxiliary
of the British and Foreign Bible Society. An edition of 580 copies of
St. John's Gospel, issued from
the same source in 1859, having been executed under the care of the Rev. A.
Burn, of Kurrachee: 280
copies of this edition were printed in the Arabic character, and 300 copies
in the Gurmukhi.".--The Bible of Every Land. (1860, Second
