Overview

The Ozolotepec Zapotec New Testament was completed in 2007 and represents the first Scripture published in the Ozolotepec Zapotec language. The translation was facilitated by Jona and Jen Cordova, Wycliffe linguistics and translation workers, who collaborated with a team of Zapotec translators from San Francisco Ozolotepec, Oaxaca.
