What's your preferred bible version?

[Steve]

Anything that is Formal Equivalence. Right now I'm using the KJV Commentary Bible, the NKJV Study Bible, NASBU, ESV, and the Joyce Meyer Amplified Bible. While I'm not a fan of hers, there are some excellent helps in this bible.

I'm an NIV guy myself.

I like so many different versions myself. For just reading I prefer to use the HCSB and the NLT.

But for studying I like to use the ESV and the NASB.

How about you all?

I like the KJV and NKJV. Sometimes I get a word and I will find it in the KJV, but other times I will find it in the NKJV. NKJV is easier for me to read, because I do not have to waste any time translating all the thous and thys. But, I like Psalm 23 in the KJV. I just love the word of God, especially when it is spoken and magnified.

When I'm doing my bible study, I generally do a cross-study between the ESV, NIV, NLT, and the NKJV.
