You know something? At least we BOTH
got that right!

King James, and the far more recent
MEV(modern Eng Version). When
my church has the budget, they will
eventually replace all the NIVs in
the pews with MEV. It is a literal
translation of King James in modern
English, restoring all the verses
missing from the NIV.


I love the psalms in KJV. The other translations
remove the poetic impact. Just are not the same, even
if the say the same things.

Our English speaking bothers and sisters in Christ
do a pretty good job of translating the scriptures
into English.

Does the MEV have "Though Shalt not Kill" correctly
translated into "Though Shalt not Murder" yet?
Most have now made that correction.



I enjoy Psalms and Proverbs as favorites, too.
