Khmer Standard Version

All translators but one are still alive:

− Rev. Arun Sok Nhep

− Fr. François Ponchaud

− Mrs. Salay Sangkhum

− Mrs. Truong Leap Romluc

− Mrs. Yos Em Sithan

− Mr. Cheung Sokhom

The translation project started in 1985 and was initiated by the Société Biblique

Française (French Bible Society). It was handed over to United Bible Society in

1992. The project was completed in 1997 and published in 1998 as “Today’s khmer Version”. Copyright © 1998 United Bible Societies. It was an interconfessional version.

Upon request from the protestant churches, a revision was undertaken. A protestant edition was published under the new name: “Khmer Standard version”.
