This publication is the New Testament in the Lewo language. The 3,500 speakers of Lewo live on the east coast of Epi, an island in the Shefa province of central Vanuatu. It was translated over the years 1982 to 2015 by the Lewo Translation and Literacy Project, which operated under the Epi Council of Chiefs and the churches on the island. The translators were Kapiapo Melio, Andrew Avio, and John Sethy. The translation advisor and editor was Robert Early. Numerous Lewo speakers assisted as committee members and reviewers, and the support provided by many overseas donors is acknowledged.
