Yes, so far only the first chapter of Genesis is available in the
unrevised 1588 version. (The whole thing is available in the 1620
revision.) I'm working on it as best I can, but there's only one of
me, and I'm spread rather thin between this and several other
projects on other languages' Wikisources (including several texts in
Irish at the multilingual Wikisource, see <a
href="http://wikisource.org/wiki/Main_Page:Gaeilge">http://wikisource.org/wiki/Main_Page:Gaeilge</a>).<br>
<br>
If anybody else wants to come and help with the proofreading of the
1588 Bible, you're more than welcome!<br>

However, a fully searchable highly accurate text has been prepared
as part of the EEBO/TCP project, and it will be available soon on
the National Library of Wales website (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.llgc.org.uk">www.llgc.org.uk</a>) (look for
'Early English [sic!] Books Online' (EEBO) under 'electronic
resources'). Users wishing to access it will have to sign up as
Library users.

<br>
Various other early printed Welsh texts are also in preparation,
or already available (e.g. the 1620 edition is already available
and is far more accurate than the Wikisource one, which seems to
be a transcription of a modern Bible based on the 1620 version,
rather than a transcription of the original 1620 version).

There's no specific search function for it, though, other than
the

normal search function of your browser, or by googling with
