My pastor is going thru a different psalm every Sunday this summer. I have to admit, I've been following along, taking notes, but many times think good thing he explained that because I never would have gotten it. It makes sense when he says it but it makes no sense when I read it. Even the Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want, I always wondered "why don't you want Him?" until I heard it explained I have no wants because he fulfills them. I guess that old English went right over my head and I can quote that but never understood that one part. Then I always wondered why it seems to be talking about Him, then to Him, why switch back and forth like that? Usually in Sunday School, we go thru a book of the Bible, we're doing Amos and Hosea this quarter. I'll tell you what, if there wasn't study guides and going over it every week, I would be completely lost. :) |

Norrie Go get yourself a copy of the Bible in "The New Living Tranlation". Not the 'Living Bible", but rather the "New Living Translation". You will understanded it and the Bible will come alive for you like never before. If you can't find that translation, see if you can find one call "God's Word". I like them both but the NLT is really nice. Be Blessed and be a Blessing Ed |

I usually use the NKJ, have a parallel bible that has 4 translations in it, an amplified, Message, my daughter has the NIV for school. Mama had the Living Bible, I guess I'll see if I can find "The New Living Tranlation". Does it read more like a novel? I can read novels easier because you can skip on them. :) I remember I found one in a motel not long after I got saved that must have been very paraphrased because it was easy to read, almost like a novel. Wish I still had that. Then you read all these arguments on this translation vs that translation and just get confused and disgusted. |

New Living Translation reads like people talk in common down to earth terms that everyone can understand. It is a fairly literal translation. I personally use either NASB or NKJV but the New Living Translation is excellent. I perfer it over the NIV and I won't even consider the Living Bible. The Amplified is okay, but I get tired in all the words they use. I read through the Bible in my personal devotions and I like using different tranlations. The New Living Translation was the easiest and in some ways the most enjoyable to read. That is why I suggested you try it. | ||||||
