It is not possible to bundle it in a static lib, but you can create new bundle like "MyStaticLibraryName.bundle", put inside all localizations and use the code below instead "NSLocalizedString()". All you need to do: add a static library and resource bundle.

NSString *MyLocalizedString(NSString* key, NSString* comment) {
static NSBundle* bundle = nil;
if (!bundle) {
    NSString* path = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] resourcePath] stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"MyStaticLibraryName.bundle"];
    bundle = [[NSBundle bundleWithPath:path] retain];
}

return [bundle localizedStringForKey:key value:key table:nil];
}
