What is the best bible translation?

>Not reading OT in Hebrew and NT in Greek
Any translation is inherently false.

Authorized King James Version

King James

New Revised Standard Version - Catholic Edition

English translations suck as a whole honestly.

You better be reading Septuagint too, considering the Tanakh got canonized only after the emergence of Christianity and they deliberately removed references to Christ, which are still present in Septuagint.

KJV

All modern versions are perversions.

King James Version.

Best English translation ever.

And I was raised Catholic.

You can't prove me wrong.

KJV

Statenvertaling if Dutch.

>>452689
KJV is only useful for poetic language, Bible translation has improved immensely since then, it's dumb to recommend it as default. Might as well go for the Vulgate or Douay-Rheims if you respect tradition that much.

>>452697
KJV delivers scripture more powerful than any other version. It keeps the nuances.

Thy, thee and thou is also very important because YOU can refer to both 1 person or a group of people.

What's the best Swedish translation? I'm thinking of reading one.

Modern versions use the corrupt Westcott & Hort text.

KJV is the best for English speakers because it is based on the Textus Receptus, the majority Greek text.

Wycliffe

Take the memeposting to /int/ please.

/his/ is -almost- decent, and I'd like to keep it at least almost decent.

What's modern Swedish Lutheranism like? I was always interested in Swedes since they're the ones who pretty much saved protestantism in my country of origin.

>>452717
I really don't know. I'm an immigrant still learning the language, and none of my swedish in-laws are religious at all.

Sorry I can't be helpful in that regard. I know no religious people at all infact.
