I understand your point - but what then is there to say he didn't raise up men to do the NASB or NIV (I prefer NASB btw over the NIV...)
Check out the results of their work.
The NASB states in Heb.9:16, For where a covenant is, there must be of necessity be the death of the one who made it .
That is simply an outright error (refusing to translate the Greek word for Testament, hence you have a bible that says Old and New Testament, but the NASB translators do not believe an old and new testament exist).
To see how incorrect NASB is on Heb.9:16 check out Gen.21:27 where no one dies after making a covenant.
The fact of the matter is, the NASB, like the rest of the modern translations, do not even use the correct Greek/Hebrew texts, so they are DOA.
