It's certainly tempting to give the ta naQ a try ;)

There of course is the (excellent) Klingon translation of the Dao De Jing, =
by Agnieszka Solska, which I also have in my "library", which could count a=
s religious or at least highly philosophical work.

The Qur'an (the word already looks Klingon, doesn't it?!) would be a logica=
l choice. I always had the impression that it's more difficult to translate=
 than the Bible.

I'll just point out that this year is the 400th anniversary of the
King James translation of The Bible.

According to my records, we have:

Old Testament:
Ruth 1
Ester 1
Job 13:14
Psalms 1, 34, 117, 122,
Jonah 1-4

New Testament:
Mark - Complete book
John 3:16


Not complete by any stretch.

You could have read it for free over at http://mrklingon.org/



I've also translated a few chapters in The Book of Mormon, but I don't
have those notes on me right now.

Have any other religious text been attempted?
