<div dir="ltr">There of course is the (excellent) Klingon translation of the Dao De Jing, by Agnieszka Solska, which I also have in my "library", which could count as religious or at least highly philosophical work.<br>
<br>
The Qur'an (the word already looks Klingon, doesn't it?!) would be a logical choice. I always had the impression that it's more difficult to translate than the Bible.<br>

I'll just point out that this year is the 400th anniversary of the<br>
King James translation of The Bible.<br>

According to my records, we have:<br>
<br>
Old Testament:<br>
Ruth 1<br>
Ester 1<br>
Job 13:14<br>
Psalms 1, 34, 117, 122,<br>
Jonah 1-4<br>
<br>
New Testament:<br>
Mark - Complete book<br>
John 3:16<br>
<br>
<br>
Not complete by any stretch.<br>

You could have read it for free over at <a href="http://mrklingon.org/"; target="_blank">
http://mrklingon.org/</a><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I've also translated a few chapters in The Book of Mormon, but I don't<br>
have those notes on me right now.<br>
<br>
Have any other religious text been attempted?<br>
