What Bible Version Should I Use
What BIBLE VERSION
Should I Use?
Word-for-Word Translation
Careful attention is given to translating the exact meaning of each Hebrew/ Greek word. These versions are considered preferable for in-depth study of the Bible.
New American Standard (NASB, 1978) or NASB Update (1995)
King James Version (KJV, 1611) or Authorized Version (AV)
New King James (NKJV) English Standard Bible (ESB)
Thought-for-Thought Translation
Careful attention is given to translating the exact meaning of each Hebrew/ Greek phrase for readability.
New International Version (NIV)
New Living Bible
Paraphrase
These may omit words from the original text in order to communicate the original, earthy meaning in the most helpful or arresting way.
JB Phillips (1958)
Specialty Bibles
Study Bibles
Read carefully as these editors include extensive footnotes, which may or may not be correct.
The International Inductive Study Bible (IISB) is unique in that it only includes historical footnotes and charts that are helpful for making ones own notes; it uses NASB, 95 for biblical text. Recommended for students of the inductive study method.
Inclusive Language Editions
To avoid appearing sexist, these translations from the 1990’s use words such as “human beings” instead of “man”. Some actually distort the actual meaning of the text (See TNIV, Hebrews 2:6)
Chronological Bibles
These Bibles re-arrange the books (and certain portions of books) of the Bible so the stories or psalms appear in chronological order.
Amplified Bible
Extra words are added to the original text to augment the meaning of certain words.
