It's clunky, badly translated and they have an extremely restrictive copyright use (possibly so people won't get embarrassed as others point out the rotten translation job).

Well, that explains why I never see the NAB outside the missalettes . . .

When passages from the Gospels that I know extremely well are read from the pulpit in the NAB translation, I can't help cringing. What's the matter with the occasion antique construction? That's what the HOMILY is for, guys!
