An Biobla Naomhtha
form undefined
In 1690, the Irish translations of the Old and New Testament were published together as An Biobla Naomhtha. The printing of this book, which involved transliteration from Irish into Roman characters, was overseen by Rev. Robert Kirk, who intended it for Scottish Gaelic readers. Kirk’s effort met with little enthusiasm.
