A couple posts back I shared an experiment I was doing with some machine learning models, to make a novel tool for language learning.


Specifically, I was interested in creating an Interlinear Audio Bible, where each verse in the Bible is read in two different languages — first in the listeners’ native language, then in the language they’re learning. As I explained in that post, the goal is to give language learners a useful tool for comprehensible input.

I included a sample chapter demonstrating this idea, and I had been hoping to create some more chapters soon.


Well, I’m happy to announce that I just finished creating some more chapters!

In fact… I made a FULL Audio Bible in this style!

And… In fact… The full truth is… I made TWO full audio bibles! 😆


The first (which I’ll personally be using the most to start with) is an English-Spanish interlinear audio bible, where each verse is read in English first, and then in Spanish.

The second (good for either Spanish natives learning English, or for advanced Spanish learners) is a Spanish-English interlinear audio bible, where each verse is read in Spanish first, and then English.


You can see all 66 books and 1189 chapters for both of those audio bibles at this Google Drive link.


This idea (and my implementation) is still quite new, and there are likely problems/errors within the files. I’ve listened through a few chapters and they all seemed to be great, but haven’t done SUPER in-depth quality control.

So if/when you find issues, please do let me know!



This work is a remix of the public domain Berean Bible, and the CC BY 4.0 La Biblia en Español Sencillo, by AudioBiblia.org / Irma Flores. The resulting work, therefore, is also CC BY 4.0, meaning you can share it and redistribute it freely, under the condition that you include attribution (To AudioBiblia.org / Irma Flores for the original Spanish audio, to Berean Bible for the English audio Bible, and to me — Josh Müller | joshmuller.ca — for the interlinear remix) when you do so.

Thanks to the Berean Bible team and Irma Flores for giving freely of their works. This tool wouldn’t be possible without their generous permissions!

And a HUGE thanks to Andrew Case, who made the compute for this project possible. It was not viable for me to run the NLP verse stamping model on several full audio bibles using just my laptop, so he generously made that compute available to see this project (and several upcoming projects😎) built out.

There are several new tools in this vein we’re hoping to launch soon, so keep an eye out for more projects like this coming down the pipe.



If you’d like to see something like this made for another language, feel free to let me know!

I’m hoping to release the source code and workflow I used to build this in the next few days, so anyone could build one themselves.


Or, if there is enough demand, I’m also willing to build another audio bible like this (assuming the source bibles are either in the public domain, or a compatible Creative Commons license, or assuming you’ve gotten permission from the original translation license owners to remix and release something like this).


Happy listening and learning!
