Bible Note: Quite a difference! I love the KJV, but I use the NASB for study. Our congregation is switching -- en masse -- to the ESV for consistency sake. I'm okay with that... except that I can't quite get used to its cadence. The KJV and NASB seem to have retained the cadence -- or at least a sense of it -- in the original language. I also had a hard time with tossing out "Woe!" and replacing it with "Ah" (or some similar sound). I guess I'm so used to the "Woe" that anything else sounds funny. One last thing I do miss from the KJV is second person plural... which is lost entirely in all modern translations. :-( |
