Hello!~ And, may God find you all walking in the spirit and in the shield of protection from the evil one. My husband and I gave our lives to God nearly 40 years ago and we look forward to your devotions every day. My husband has asked me to write you and ask what version of the bible you are using so that he may obtain a copy of that version. We work a lot with young people who don’t have a dad and your version would be great to use with them, (and we love it too)!~

Praise God for you and your family in the Sinai Desert!~

Your Brother & Sister in Christ,

Ezra & Linda

Shalom Ezra and Linda,

I’m not using a standard translation — I’m translating each passage myself each day. I have a problem with many of the omissions in the newer translations, so to fulfill the request by many of the readers to a more modern translation while at the same time keeping the integrity of the Hebrew and the Greek — the only way I could do both without compromising was to translate the text myself. Actually as I’m translating the text — it’s almost like a 2nd devotion the Lord speaks to me through since there’s soo much lost in translation.

God bless,

George

New American Standard Version, English Standard Version, KJV, and a host on e-sword (where I get my translations from when I need them).

Blessings

I have the Power Bible CD which has 12 translations.

I have hard copies of the KJV and the Complete Jewish Bible, translated by David H. Stren.

Mostly I carry my KJV to church and mens group.

I will always love the KJV, but I favor the NLT at the moment, though I have lots of versions both in hard copy & digital. I like comparing them. Carried a 4 version parallel version for a long time. Thank goodness for my iPad & all it's digital versions (which is what I use now) because that big parallel Bible weighed a TON! :)
