Also please respect others here and if you believe your bible is the one and only true bible then just post your version of the bible that you believe like anyone else would post their bible. Thank you and once again God bless. For me, I was debating between NASB and ESV for the longest time... I finally settled for ESV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite Bible is the NIV. When I read the NIV it was fairly new, and there weren't many modern translations yet. I have a problem understanding old English, so even now, some 30 years later, I still can't understand the KJV. But if you can understand that form of English I think it's a great translation. Since I read the NIV cover to cover, it remains my favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Norrin Radd Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I'm most familiar with the NASB because it was my primary Bible for many years early in my Xian life, but I'd no longer call it my "favorite." My preference is to have several parallel translations of different "styles." If Zondervan ever updates Today's Parallel Bible to the most current versions of NASB, NIV, and NLT, I'll probably order one. If I really had to pick one translation, it would probably be either the TNIV or the NIV2011. The ISV is interesting and useful, especially for reproducing a bit of the "flavor" of poetic passages in the NT. The NET is good, and has copious notes. However, because of some research done by Suzanne McCarthy, I have to somewhat distrust their notes, their translation, and even their motives and competence.
