I saw a rarity yesterday in an exhibition here: a dual language
Swahili and Latin Bible. Under the glass cage it was open on the first
page of Genesis, as you might expect, and the translation given for
'Dominus' was 'Bwana'.
Interesting that, in all sorts of jointed ways, in its leather binding.
Best
Dave
