Ombeimbela - Herero Bible - 1987 Translation

The Herero language (Otjiherero) is a language of the Bantu family (NigerCongo group). It is spoken by the Herero people in Namibia (206,000) and Botswana. The total number of speakers in both countries is approximately 237,000.

Because of missionary Gottlieb Viehe's (18391901) translation of the Bible into Herero at the end of the 19th century, the spoken language was transcribed to a script based on the Latin alphabet.
