Bible Note: Hank, I agree with your recommendations for the best Bible translations, including the Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB). In my opinion the HCSB is an excellent and trustworthy translation. It has been said of it that it is more readable than the NASB and more literal than the NIV. In the HCSB where the literal translation is not in the text itself, it is usually in the footnotes, giving the reader the best of both worlds (in my opinion). Also, I believe the alleged lack of clarity (the "unreadability") , woodenness, awkwardness and unsuitability for public reading of the New American Standard Bible has been GREATLY exaggerated. It is much ado about nothing. Grace to you, John * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock. Psalm 27:5 (KJV) For He will conceal me in His shelter in the day of adversity; He will hide me under the cover of His tent; He will set me high on a rock. Psalm 27:5 Holman Christian Standard Bible |
