They’ve already blown this once with the NIVr (I beleive is the name.) Basicly a pc version of the Bible.

Is this the version that didn't like God being refereed to as a man ( because it offended the NOW hags ) and they "corrected" it?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I believe it was.

I’ve followed the Bible translation controversy somewhat closely. “Green’s Literal Translation” & “Young’s Literal Translation” are probably the closest to a literal word for word translation into English. One thing that becomes apparent when you read either of those is how “non-literal” the KJV can be in places (although it is more literal than most modern translations.)

If you want a solid modern, literal translation that uses the same New Testament base texts as the KJV, then go with the NKJV.

As far as modern New Testament text basis, the New American Stadard 95 out of the Lockman Foundation is the best (not the older one, but the 95 version.)
