What is the most reliable solution to embed Lua scripts in a Java application?

Hi!

I would like to use some Lua scripts, they are frequently updated and it would be difficult to port them to Java and update them each time they are modified. I need a pure Java implementation of Lua (not LuaJava as I want to avoid native dependencies), I’m looking at Luaj and Jillcode. What should I use for my purpose?

I use Kahlua in my game: http://code.google.com/p/kahlua/

Thanks Jacob_. Kahlua uses LuaJ’s compiler. This library is no more maintained. Have you tried Kahlua2?
