To compare (what I believe to be) the best modern-language literal English Bible versions. The King James Version is an excellent translation that has stood the test of time, but there is value in comparing translations to get a better understanding of a verse. Thanks again!Further to adamdenny22’s comment : Lockman is hoping to release in 2020 its delayed revision of the NASB, but many of those who have seen the published extracts are underwhelmed. I have both a NASBU and ESV right here with me and struggle to decide on which to make my primary. I resonate with what you said in Chapter 6 Argument 7 about ease of memorization. Having gotten back into religion a few years back, after many years of being pretty blasé about it (thank God for bringing a woman into my life who makes me feel both very blessed & loved), I have spent time with the NIV & NET, before recently deciding to look closely at the ESV & NASB. Is one better than the other?The goal of a Bible translation is obviously to help the reader understand the text. 2. (The topic of which manuscripts are the most accurate is complex and controversial. But you also challenge and encourage me: may the Lord help you in your efforts to memorize. I just looked at that file again, and I’m not sure I’d make all the same choices, but reading the two translations over the years has led me to the same conclusion.Both the ESV and the NASB are conservative translations. I resonate with what you said in Chapter 6 Argument 7 about ease of memorization.

So yes, the continual updates of the ESV does make me a little weary of making it a memory-verse Bible. They are gorgeous.It is my understanding that Crossway paid a lump sum to the NCC. The most popular post in the history of my blog is an implicit argument that the ESV’s market share among Bible readers […]I made a post almost 2 years ago (Mike Gratis), figured I’d make an update. I do agree that the ESV is imperfect. I use the NIV 2011 the most, however our church has been using the NIV and our new pastor prefers the NASB. I respect the NASB team for having one revision (which was greatly helpful). NASB:1995 Revision, New American Standard Bible, copyright 1995 by Lockman Foundation.
I wish I could speak Κοινή (Koine, New Testament) Greek as a living language; I cannot. But overall I prefer the NASB. I do love them both, though I love the KJV for it’s poeticness and is the translation I use in preaching, I use the NASB and the ESV in my devotional reading and study. My primary Bible is the ESV, though I regularly compare passages in it with the NASB & KJV. I do not read it alone.).
I have the pretty standard training in Greek that most American residential seminarians get, plus a little extra maybe. I do refer and quote the others in preaching along with the Amplified version for a further breakdown of the verse (this is only used if people can see the verse, such as power point. I’ve been a Christian since 1970. Thank you for taking the time to give me new insights.I like the internet when it brings me people like you, Joe. The TNIV has corrected most of the mistranslations of the NIV. =) No, seriously: he tackles textual criticism and I quite purposely avoid it. I can almost always see, and see quickly, what various translations are doing when they differ.I’ll hop in here from the perspective of a more progressive Christian. 39 No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.I’m absolutely convinced that nothing—nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable—absolutely Just wondering if there is any difference between this version of the NASB and the previous printed version of the NASB study bibles?Hi Karen, there hasn’t been any change to the NAS translation since 1995. This way I have covered nearly all bases, excepting knowledge of the original languages, when it comes to textual and translational variation. And now that I’m becoming familiar with the ESV, I find that even more poetic – as you said, kind of a modern version if the KJV.Good thoughts, and I used to talk just like you do about the NIV.

Why don’t you just let me use a Bible I can read for myself.”Great comment, Dan. The ESV seems more likely to me to stick around than the NASB, even though it’s newer.

Until the twentieth century the philosophy of Bible translation was to translate the Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek words of the Bible into the closest possible equivalent in English. When the ESV first came out in 2001 I started an Excel spreadsheet to record passages where I believed one to be superior to the other. By God’s grace, using this approach, he has thus far helped me to memorize about half of the NT epistles, including Romans and Hebrews.
