Also as people keep posting here, this isn't about what bible is more accurate or a KJBO debate, state your sword of choice and leave it at that. :-)

The ESV and the NASB are the most accurate word for word English translations of the Holy Bible.

Ha ha

This is a can of worms.

Or is it a troll.

You just made my ignore list and I have nothing further to say to you except that calling people names over something like this is extremely childish.

Troll...ie trolling for posters.

As in posting a controversial statement to GE a response out of someone.

But go ahead and block me.

If you wanted a list of translations, why didn't you just search Amazon?

A thread like this naturally garners discussion.

I wanted to see what bibles people use here in this site. Here where I am currently at, we have 1 who uses the Holmes Bible, I use ESV, my PA uses NKJ, another who uses NLT... there is no need for an arguement on this thread.

(EDIT: Also I never stated I want a list of different translations, I want people to state what bible they themselves use, as mentioned in the very first post)

I've used the NIV since it first came out, around 1976 when the NT came out. I have also used the NASB since about the same time or shortly thereafter.

I now use the NIV 2011 now, and the Holeman Standard Christian Bible. My latest is the MOUNCE Reverse Interlinear NT. Go to the following link to view it;

My favorite by far is the KJV, followed closely by the NASB, and the ESV, though I study out of several, even ones I absolutly despise such as the message. I like taking poor translations and tearing them apart by comparing them with the more literal translations and the greek/hebrew, it helps me grow.

I hold my KJV close by, I have recently gotten into reading the ESV, I really like it.

But when it comes to indepth study, I have KJV, NET, and ESV open. Ha ha ha.

I use the KJV, nothing compares in my opinion. I use others though also to compare.
