PS. The New American Standard version by the Lockmann Foundation is reasonably accurate. However, The Lockmann Foundation took liberties in translating the New Testament that are incorrect to make Jesus a Diety (I.e in the first chapter of John the Gospel).
Another version came out in the 1970s that is actually quite honorable: The Jewish Bible back then. Another version from the start was actually very accurate: The King James Version (original not doctored up as it has been lately). Yes the KJ version had inaccurate sentences here and there but for the most part the KJV is really rather remarkable in being true to the dated manuscripts it was translated from. For instance in the Gospel of John: (KJV) "In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God." That is accurate. However, in the New American Standard Jesus is inserted as "the word" before he should have been introduced as "the Word." The NAS Bible inserts Jesus ahead of time. It is inaccurate. NASB: "He was in the beginning with God" KJV: "The same was in the beginning with God" (I.e. the Word). The NASB inserts "HE" instead of "the same" was in the beginning with God. The NASB inserts Jesus while the original texts say "the Word" not Jesus, in the opening lines of the original texts from Novum Testamentum Graeke. Read the NT in the original language of Classic Greek and see how many bibles today are not accurate. |
