Jeh (also spelled Die, Gie, Yaeh) is a language spoken by more than fifteen thousand people in Vietnam. There are also several thousand speakers in the Laotian provinces of Xekong and Attapu.

Sample Text

Few written texts of the Jeh language exist online, but in 2023, the John 3:16 project sent researchers to Jeh and translated a sacred text into the Jeh language.

ພະເຢໂອວາວ໊າໂລກມໍ໊ໄຢ ອັນໂດ໊ກອນອັນໂກ໊ເນົາ ອັນຫງາຕາມຢີ໊ມັງອັນ(ກອນຄຼໍ) ແດ໊ຈິ໊ດ ອັນເຢງຊີວິດອະມະຕະ(ແທນ) ໂຢ​ຮັນ 3:16
