Bible translations into Prekmurje Slovene
The first New Testament in Prekmurje Slovene appeared in 1771: the Nouvi Zákon of István Küzmics. This was distinct from Bible translations into Slovene, such as that of Miklós Küzmics. Between the 16th and 19th centuries there were few literary standards for Slovene in Styria, Carniola, Carinthia, Hungary, and the Slovenian Littoral. Primož Trubar published the fully translations of the books in the New Testament, Jurij Dalmatin the full Bible. Other regional standards did not produce more experiments, only the Prekmurje dialect spoken in Hungary. First experiments 
The Hungarian Slovenes also knew the central Slovene books and Dalmatin's Bible, but hardly understood the central Slovene. They also used a few Kajkavian books. In the 16th century, writers experimented with a separate Prekmurje written standard and the Old Hymnal of Martjanci (the second book) contained Psalms (Žoltárje, 30, 23, 14, 95, 146, 133, 12, 42, 46), mostly adaptations from Kajkavian Croatian. The first Kajkavian printed book Postilla from Antun Vramec also have citations from the Gospels. András Rogan, priest of Dekležin (Dokležovje) was transcribe the Postilla, but this manuscript has some Prekmurje lexemes. Ferenc Temlin published the first printed book in Prekmurje Slovene in 1715, which was still influenced by Kajkavian. This book contains a few citations and psalms (145, 147). The Abeczedarium Szlowenszko (1725) can be found the fully translation of the 5th, 6th, and 23rd psalms. Although this book also influenced by the Kajkavian, the psalms are adaptations from the Dalmatin's Bible. Mihály Szever Vanecsai in his book Réd zvelicsánsztva'1 translate the 1st, 25th and 32nd. psalms. István Küzmics 

István Küzmics's work the fully translation of the New Testament, the Nouvi Zákon. Küzmics argues, that the Hungarian Slovenes expressly require the Bible in his mother tongue, which is the Hungarian Slovene language (vogrſzki szlovenszki jezik; i.e., the Prekmurje dialect) because the central Slovene literature was not sufficient. Küzmics's Hungarian patrons also encouraged him to work in the 1750s. Küzmics sought to write in the authentic dialect, but preserved more Kajkavisms and taking words from Central Slovene, German, Latin, Hungarian, Czech, and Slovak. Nouvi Zákon is also a unique work in European literature, especially when one takes into consideration that the number of Slovenes during Küzmics's lifetime was very low ( 15,000). Miklós Küzmics 

Miklós Küzmics Roman Catholic priest from Kajkavian and Latin language translate in the 1760s the Szvéti evangyeliomi (Holy Gospels), the first Catholic Bible translation, but he could not be published. His source was the Kajkavian Szveti evangeliomi from Nikola Krajačević, which was popular book among the Hungarian Slovenes and István Küzmics also used in the translation of the Nouvi Zákon. János Szily, first bishop of Szombathely supported the publication of the Szvéti evangyeliomi and other Küzmics's books. Sándor Terplán 

Sándor Terplán, the priest of Puconci in 1848 was published the third issue of Nouvi Zákon, Nôvi Zákon titled. Terplán replaced the ej, ou diphthongs with ê, ô characters. Terplán also dealt with translating complete Bible: in 1848 published along with the Nôvi Zákon the Book of Psalms (Knige 'zoltárszke) in the Prekmurje dialect. In 1847 published course-book Dvakrat 52 Bibliszke Historie'' (Twice 52 Histories from the Bible). Terplán died early, so he could not continue the work. János Kardos
