Bible Question: acts 8:37 is not in the NIV translation would u know y it is not in it |
Bible Answer: In most cases, you can find out why a certain verse is omitted from a certain translation by reading the footnotes in the translation. Usually if a translation omits a verse it is because there is uncertainty about whether that verse was in the manuscripts (or belonged there) in the first place. Acts 8:36 (New International Version) 36 As they traveled along the road, they came to some water and the eunuch said, "Look, here is water. Why shouldn't I be baptized?"[a] 'Footnotes: 'a. Acts 8:36 Some late manuscripts baptized?" 37 Philip said, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." The eunuch answered, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God."' Acts 8:36 (English Standard Version) 36 And as they were going along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, "See, here is water! What prevents me from being baptized?"[a] 'Footnotes: 'a. Acts 8:36 Some manuscripts add all or most of verse 37: And Philip said, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." And he replied, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God." ' Acts 8:36 (Holman Christian Standard Bible) 36 As they were traveling down the road, they came to some water. The eunuch said, "Look, there's water! What would keep me from being baptized?" [ 37 And Philip said, "If you believe with all your heart you may." And he replied, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God."] [j] Footnote: j. 'Acts 8:37 Other mss (manuscripts) omit bracketed text' |
