As I am interested in finding any texts in Unicode (UTF8) in any
language.
I must admit that in most cases the more interesting scripts (LR, such
as
Hebrew, Arabic, Farsi, Urdu, or combining such as Khmer) do not have the

I can provide you Pashto, Dari (Farsi) and Urud.
do you have specific phrase or should I provide

Khmer Unicode is moving forward...there should be some good news before the end

the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is available in 300
languages. http://www.unhchr.ch/udhr/navigate/alpha.htm. There is
info about special characters and mention of Unicode:

Unfortunately, there are some errors in the UNHCRC 300
language collection.
Also not wanting to fan any fires, I wish to point out why I believe
the text from Genesis was chosen - most Bible translations (as far as I
know) are worked on

a better choice.
Yes, well, until Unicode faces the wrath of its progenitor and is
split asunder into a myriad of sundry different and mutually
