I use the Amplified Bible. It’s purported to be the most literal Greek translation.
It’s very flowery like the Greek .. but to me, the Amplified Bible translation makes the Word come alive. I don’t know how else to describe it.
The greek reference here is not to be received as being better translation compared to others but as a complement (add-on) to one’s bible study. I like the amplified too but I also like to see what the original Greek says about a particular verse so that I can get a even better understanding of what I have read. I think a few posters think I’m trying to make it a a competition when we all should add more to our study
NASB is the most literal translation.
