The Dakota Wowapi Wakan Kin Bible is public domain but extremely difficult to find. This blog is the ongoing project to get it digitized and as corrected as possible to make this beautiful language accessible through a well-known piece of literature.

Renewed Explanation
Hello, everyone. :-) We just found something else interesting about the translation we are working with. It seems the people who did it originally were undecided whether it should be a literal or a dynamic translation. The thing to do if you are a native speaker or if you know the language is to take the KJV or another Majority Text literal translation and compare and fix what is not quite right. We will get to this, God willing, but for now, we just need to get it out there for whomsoever will work on it. Unfortunately, there are still some scanning errors because the scanning software likes to guess what was meant and it obviously does not have this language in its database. However, it is getting it out there in a workable format so it can be fixed. This has been kept from its rightful owners for far too long! God bless <3
