Greetings Paulus,
In case helpful, our group has has been able to access (or add to) Bible translations in various minority languages often through freelance or crowd-translation services. We're mostly active in Europe now, though some of my earliest activities were on US native American reservations, and there high quality translations often available in the tribal languages in this way. Similarly with our church-building, conversion and other missionary efforts in Europe, we've often had the help of freelance and crowd-translator services, ex. the Kosovar variant of Albanian is quite distinctive as dialect and it wasn't easy to obtain translated versions in that local form. The same with our translations into Frisian, Sorbian and Faroese. (Bibles in Scottish Gaelic, Irish Gaelic and Welsh were thankfully quite readily available, apparently due to heavy revival efforts in those Celtic languages) We also found the Wycliffe Bible Translators to be helpful, as they task themselves with translations into often overlooked languages--it's a group of paid professionals and volunteers who provide great services, and in some cases, their Bible translations can be accessed in app form. For Dzongkha, at least as far as I'm aware, some of the Wycliffe Translator's work can be found here-- dzoD Bible | རྫོང་ཁ་ | YouVersion
