[Lexicog] Dictionary of biblical vocabulary in Pidgin of Papua New Guinea

[Fritz Goerling]

Recently I read the Lord's prayer in PNG Pidgin English with great interest:

 

Papa bilong mipela, yu i stap long heven:

Nem bilong yu i mas i stap holi.

Kingdom bilong yu i mas i kam long ol ples.

Maus bilong yu ol i bihainim long heven,

olsem tasol mipela olgeta i mas bihainim long graun tu.

Kaikai bilong mipela bilong de, nau yu givim mipela.

Lusim sin bilong mipela,

mipela tu i lusim sin ol i mekim long mipela.

Yu no bringim mipela long samting bilong traiim mipela.

Tekewe mipela long olgeta samting nogut.

Kingdom na strong na biknem i bilong yu tasol oltaim oltaim. Tru  

 

Does someone know whether something like a dictionary of biblical vocabulary
in PNG Pidgin exists?
