seconded, KJV is the only acceptable english bible. don't read in english though if you can help it, the closer you get to the source generally the better you are.
Aiden Diaz
Style/Historical Importance : KJV, obviously
Accuracy : Either the Douay-Rheims or the RSV Second Catholic Edition (RSV-2CE).
It's baffling to me that God can't be a He in a lot of newer vesions. How has it come to this?
Grayson Jackson
The LDS KJV.
Matthew Gutierrez
God is male in every modern translation. Also, the fact that you recommend both Douay-Rheims and RSV-2CE for accuracy shows that you don't understand the textual sources. D-R is only for trad Catholics since it's based on the Latin Vulgate, not the original languages. RSV-2CE is based on critical editions and early manuscripts and is far superior to the D-R.

Are there Christian organizations/charities that will mail me a bible for free if I ask for one?
Jace Hall
Damn... You didn't have to do my boy dirty like that.
Mason Jenkins
Yeah, probably. Google it, fag.

Using BibleStudyTools.com I compared all versions and these four stick out the most after about a dozen verses: ASV, CJB, JUB, YLT

Gideons, not sure if they send to individuals but you can just tell them you're a church

off-topic but after working sales in a small business, I wondered if I could get away with ordering things wholesale by calling the manufacturer and pretending my address is a storefront. Why NOT buy a pallet of toilet paper, honestly?
Lucas Moore
The exuberant price
Shipping costs
Justin Thomas
Wholesale pricing is usually half of MSRP, that's my point. Shipping is cheaper over the long run too.
Carson Reyes
>shipping a pallet of toilet paper to your home is cheaper in the long run
Fool. You'd get reamed for the weight.
Joshua Gutierrez
ESV, KJV and NKJV are fine.
Orthodox Study Bible for more footnotes/info.
Try getting an LXX OT instead of the masoretic version.

I'll check those out.

It was already mentioned, but by far my favorite for accuracy and teaching is the RSV-2CE, and I'm Protestant lul
