Well I have officially received my Hindi Bible for Christmas!!!
I had my husband pick a verse to hear in Hindi.
He picked the common 2 Corinthians 5:17 (If you are unfamiliar with the Bible and want to read the Hindi in the photo, look for the number 17. It is the text following that which I'm talking bout.)
"Therefore if anyone is is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come."
I am proud to say that I was able to read through the verse, unsure about several words.
"ma - si - ha," I was stuck on this new word for a good amount of time.
As I read, my husband pointed out that I should take some time and listen to what I was saying with a couple of the words as I sounded out.
"ma - si - ha" I repeated....oh, Messiah! That's cool.
It was neat that he was able to understand some of the words even though I was oblivious to the sounds I was making.
Conquering the New Testament is a beast I am ready and (well not so much ready as I am) excited to take on this new task of learning Hindi while reading.
