## What is Lao Catholic Bible?

Lao Catholic Bible lets you read all 73 books in Lao: the 27-book New Testament and a new 46-book Old Testament draft, together with the Greek New Testament, the Greek Old Testament (Septuagint) and the World English Bible, Catholic edition. The whole app, menus included, is in Lao.

All Bible texts are included in the app and can be read offline. New Testament audio is downloaded when first used; videos stream online.

• New Testament in Lao: all 27 books, with section titles.
• Old Testament in Lao: 46 draft books, including the Catholic additions to Esther and Daniel. Greek (Septuagint) and English Old Testament collections are also included.
• Compare versions: one version, two versions one above the other, or verse by verse in two or three versions.
• Listen: the Lao New Testament read aloud (synthetic voice), with the verse being read highlighted; tap a verse to jump to it. The audio is downloaded once and then works offline, also with the screen locked.
• Videos: the JESUS film and other Bible videos in Lao from the Jesus Film Project, shown in the text right after the passage they tell (streaming, Internet needed).
• Verse images: turn any verse into a picture, with 110 backgrounds or your own photo, Lao fonts, colours, shadow and glow, then share it or save it.
• Search, bookmarks, reading history and a verse of the day.

Easy to read:
• Pinch with two fingers or use the A− A+ buttons to resize the text.
• Six colour themes (normal, sepia, dark, sage, rose, charcoal) and a Lao serif font.

About the Lao Old Testament draft:
The Lao Old Testament is a draft based on the local Thai Catholic C01 source and preserved Lao readings. Linguistic and biblical review is pending; it is not an officially approved Lao edition. The draft is identified in the app. Source gaps, placeholders and lettered verse references are preserved.

Old Testament comparison panels have independent book and chapter references. Collections retain their own numbering: matching chapter or verse numbers do not guarantee equivalent passages. Lao audio remains available for the New Testament only.

Free, no ads, no account, no personal data collected.
