The Bible was translated in Tigrinya under the supervision of Dr. Winqvist & by Eritreans. The first copies were printed in 1892. Those sitting on the right are Dr. Elsie Winqvist and Michael Holmer.

On the left: Bairu Uqbit - wearing white (assistant to Winqvist), Embaye Habte-Egzy - in the middle (a young teacher responsible for proofreading), & Keshi Girma-Tsion Gebre - close to the wall (responsible for the final wording in the translated text). (K.J. Lundstrom and E. Gebremedhin.

What we know is a team of Tigrayans from North and South of Mereb under the supervision the Swedish did the translation over long years.

Almost 130 years since the Bible was translated into Tigrigna.
It was in Geez originally
How many people red and live accordingly with the Bible ? God knows.Especially this generation

The agame Meleket said he's translating the Holy Bible into his own Tigray's language and will give it the title ቅዱስ መፅሓፍ, as opposed to መጽሓፍ ቅዱስ.

History reveals that the Tigray people have no written languages. The orthodox believers of Tigray are yet using the Amharic translated Bible.

So true, Fiyameta. Since they really don't know the Tigrinya language, I wouldn't be surprised if they wrote like this ቅዱስ መፅሐፍ

Pushkin, I know that from a personal experience when I was at Addis Ababa University. A Tigrean cohabitant in our hostel was surprised to see one of our Eritrean roommate reading a letter sent from Eritrea written in Tigrinya!

Your problem is you live in the past! Those who live in the past are most likely unable to make it to the future!

Brother Temt! You are right, no Agame can read & write in Tigrigna except for a few who learned from Eritrea. Creativity is the game of Eritreans whose daily menu is fish & Agames who eat kunti copy what is created by Eritreans.
