The Kusaien Scriptures is a book published by the American Bible Society in 1902. It is a translation of the Bible into the Kusaiean language, which is spoken on the island of Kusaie in Micronesia. The translation was done by American missionaries who worked with the Kusaiean people to create a version of the Bible that would be accessible and meaningful to them. The book includes both the Old and New Testaments, as well as maps and other helpful information. It is an important resource for scholars of linguistics, anthropology, and religion, as well as for anyone interested in the history and culture of Micronesia. The Kusaien Scriptures is a testament to the power of language and the enduring importance of the Bible in shaping the beliefs and practices of people around the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
