Are there any pocket sized New Testament, Psalms, and Proverbs available in Esperanto?

There are bibles printed in Esperanto but I don't think they are pocket-sized. And I don't know if there are any that are new testament only, although I know that some of the gospels have been published as separate volumes (separate "pamphlets" perhaps, since they are so short)

I know that Zamenhof himself translated the old testament, and the new testament was translated later. A printed version caught my eye when I was looking for some Esperanto reading, but then I decided that Ĵim’ la migrulo was closer to my Esperanto level.

Don't know if there are any pocket sized Esperanto bibles, though.

here's a related question that i'v been wondering/looking for a long time.

Where can i find the whole esperanto bible, to buy, as a printed book. a lot of websites let you download it or just read it online, but that is of little value to me since i can not bring my computer everywhere or even to church. also if i have it in book form, i would be more ready to read it, its a lot nicer then reading text on the computer.

Look on Esperanto national association websites - most of them have shops you can order from.

FedEx-Kinkos can print out and bind books for you; it's generally not that much more expensive than a commercially printed book (and if you print it out yourself, the cost of binding is only like five bucks). However the longest book I've ever had printed there was about 300 sheets. The whole Bible is much longer, and might pose problems: my 300 sheet training manual I had bound there was too big to be ring-bound so they had to use comb-binding.

The Esperanto League of North America's bookstore has several editions available - La Sankta Biblio, with or without the "Deuterocanonical" books, as well as some editions of the individual gospels.
Here's a link to their online bookstore: http://esperanto-usa.org/en/node/19
You can view a PDF version of their catalog or send away for a print version.
I ordered a book from them and the print catalog I got was amazing to look through!

Last year my husband picked up a pocket-sized Esperanto New Testament for me, from either Abebooks or E-Bay. It is a hardover, published in 1947 in London by the British and Foreign Bible Society. The full Esperanto title is La Nova Testament de Nia Sinjoro kaj Savanto Jesuo Kristo. You might try looking on used book sites to find a copy.
