The study explores the translation of the Greek word for "forgive" as "patience" in the Farefare language of Ghana, highlighting a significant linguistic and cultural discrepancy. It reveals that the Farefare Bible consistently uses the noun "patience" instead of the verb "forgive," particularly in human interactions. The researcher critiques the term "suguru" as an inappropriate translation and identifies "bah" as the correct term for forgiveness, emphasizing that the Frafra culture views patience as essential before forgiveness can be granted.
