Indeed, on every high hill and under every spreading tree you lay down as a prostitute." Seems quite different..what do you folk think? I'm not sure if this verse is well known for choosing which bible or not, normally i don't wonder about such matters. This is the first time i ever looked to see how other bibles transliterated a piece of scripture...

But when it comes to scripture memorization, I prefer the KJV. I would read the KJV regularly, but the old language slows me down a bit. I've always used the KJV. But of late I found a reference to, The Holy Bible In Its Original Order - A Faithful Version with Commentary, that was recommended to me at another Christian forum I'm member of. I'm hoping the local library can obtain a copy through interlibrary loan so I can review it rather than purchase to find out if I like it or not.

However, I also like the NASB. Not a big fan of the KVJ due to the antiquated language. The NLT is also good for just reading the Bible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What they don't look at is if the meaning of the passage is changed by doing so. If the meaning is the same then there really is no problem. It reminds me of the monarchy vs republic debate in Australia a number of years ago. The monarchists ran a very clever campaign saying there would be a certain amount of changes to the constitution if we became a republic. That scared a lot of people. However if one looked at what the changes were most of them were removing references to the monarchy or crown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As of right now, I am reserving judgment. Simply having a list like that doesn't impress me much, and I am KJV only. Give some specific instances. Show the verses side by side with the KJV Bible.I'm with you on that one. It does little good to just number the number of words by usage, since they are all translated. In the Old Testament "Lord" can be rendered from many Hebrew and Greek words and the NKJV mat have rendered another equivalent. It only counts if you change the meaning of what is being said to us.Thanks.In Christ, PatStrong's Concordance Renderings Below:Strongs # Translit.
