João Ferreira de Almeida Annes, or simply João Ferreira de Almeida (Tavares Tower, Portugal, 1628 - Batavia, Indonesia, 1691), was a preacher minister of the Dutch Reformed Church in the East Indies, especially recognized for being the first to translate the Bible into Portuguese. His translation of the New Testament was first published in 1681 in Amsterdam. Almeida died before completing the translation of the Old Testament books, reaching the final verses of the Book of Ezekiel. The translation of the remaining books of the Old Testament was completed in 1694, by Jacobus op den Akker also minister of the Reformed Church in Batavia. The volumes of the translation of the Old Testament in Portuguese were published only from the eighteenth century, in Tranquebar and Batavia.
