Macedonian (македонски јазик, makedonski jazik, ) is a South Slavic language spoken as a first language by approximately 23 million people principally in the region of Macedonia but also in the Macedonian diaspora. It is the official language of the Republic of Macedonia and holds the status of official minority language in parts of Albania, Romania and Serbia.
Early history of Macedonian translations are closely linked with translations into "Bulgarian" dialects from 1852. The whole Bible (including the Deuterocanonical books) translated in Macedonian by the Archbishop Gavril was printed in 1990.
