Bible Note: Hi, Makarios. The only thing that diminishes the latent humor of some of these ridiculous so-called translations is the stark realization that these people are tinkering with the God-breathed Holy Scriptures. I have a translation of sorts in my library called the New Century Version. I give you this line of exalted poetry taken from their rendition of Psalm 23: "Even though I walk through a very dark valley, I will not be afraid, because you are with me. Your rod and your walking stick comfort me." Leave it to the paraphrasers to let us in on the secret: God uses a walking stick! --Hank |
