About this listen

My recommendation for a good translation is the ESV or the NASB, the 1977, I prefer the thees and thous. The NIV is good, but it should be called what it is, a dynamic equivalent. That is, it tries to render the original language into our vernacular rather than translate literally. I appreciate the KJ, but since no one speaks Elizabethan English anymore, I don't recommend it for every day reading. I'll talk about the King Jimmy in a future podcast.
