The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

I'm not Christian anymore, but I thought it be good to read the Bible as it has good lessons and teachings. The issue is I have only partially read the KJV. I could understand it, but I would rather just have something that is more "modern" in wording and wordplay, but I also want something that sticks close to the original. What would you fags suggest?

Just put up with the KJV tbh it's not that hard. NKJV if you're desperate. Don't NIV. ESV isn't great, it's a rebrand of the RSV, which itself was written by a bunch of theological liberals.

Most modern translations are informed by pseudo-Christian scholarship, who are really agnostic academics (see Lutheran vulva thread). While even the conservative ones are on the other bad end, and made by Billy Bobs who think they know Greek, but can't speak a word of without sounding like the same old Billy Bob, worship Jews, and tell their congregations to die in Zionist wars, and may as well not even be Christian.

Stick with KJV. It's not only a standard in the religious world, but even what the outside world sees as the English bible and praised for it's literary qualities.

I honestly wish there was something to suggest. I'm actually not a KJV only type and not against the idea of modern bibles. Maybe some are on their way to being as great as KJV, but not yet.

>I'm not Christian anymore

Boy I hope you were just a "Cradle Christian" or something because that's not going to go well for you otherwise.

What happened to the last thread. Is this bait?

> Good lessons and teachings

By what standard are you calling them 'good'? How are you making your value judgement? What value do you see in the teachings?

The hcsb is the happy medium for literalist translation method and easier readability

The NASB is best but it's a higher reading level

If your only issue is the thee and thous use the NASB
