Enough already.

Instead of buying the latest English translation, English-speaking Christians should consider using that money for mission groups that are translating into languages that don’t have a Bible yet.

P.S. As well intentioned as they may be, I think the ESV and others are just the latest in marketing and publishing business one-upmanship.

I am in total agreement. With a plethora of English translations already available, where is there any need for another one?

Someday I fear having to give account to the Lord about why I wasn't more concerned for those people in the world that have no Bible.
