WHICH BIBLE IS RIGHT FOR YOU YOU WON’T END UP WITH A “BAD” BIBLE TRANSLATION. BIBLE VERSIONS DIFFER IN THE METHOD USED TO TRANSLATE THEM. METHOD 1: WORD FOR WORD – KJV, NASB, NRSV METHOD 2: THOUGHT FOR THOUGHT – TEV, NIV, CEV, NLT METHOD 3: PARAPHRASE – THE LIVING BIBLE, THE MESSAGE

KING JAMES VERSION (KJV) – WORD FOR WORD: PS 1:1-3 BLESSED IS THE MAN THAT WALKETH NOT IN THE COUNSEL OF THE UNGODLY, NOR STANDETH IN THE WAY OF SINNERS, NOR SITTETH IN THE SEAT OF THE SCORNFUL. 2 BUT HIS DELIGHT IS IN THE LAW OF THE L ORD ; AND IN HIS LAW DOTH HE MEDITATE DAY AND NIGHT. 3 AND HE SHALL BE LIKE A TREE PLANTED BY THE RIVERS OF WATER, THAT BRINGETH FORTH HIS FRUIT IN HIS SEASON; HIS LEAF ALSO SHALL NOT WITHER; AND WHATSOEVER HE DOETH SHALL PROSPER.

NEW INTL VERSION (NIV): PS 1:1-3 THOUGHT FOR THOUGHT BLESSED IS THE ONE WHO DOES NOT WALK IN STEP WITH THE WICKED OR STAND IN THE WAY THAT SINNERS TAKE OR SIT IN THE COMPANY OF MOCKERS, 2 BUT WHOSE DELIGHT IS IN THE LAW OF THE L ORD, AND WHO MEDITATES ON HIS LAW DAY AND NIGHT. 3 THAT PERSON IS LIKE A TREE PLANTED BY STREAMS OF WATER, WHICH YIELDS ITS FRUIT IN SEASON AND WHOSE LEAF DOES NOT WITHER— WHATEVER THEY DO PROSPERS.

THE MESSAGE: PSALM 1:1-3 PARAPHRASE HOW WELL GOD MUST LIKE YOU— YOU DON’T HANG OUT AT SIN SALOON, YOU DON’T SLINK ALONG DEAD-END ROAD, YOU DON’T GO TO SMART-MOUTH COLLEGE. 2-3 INSTEAD YOU THRILL TO G OD ’S WORD, YOU CHEW ON SCRIPTURE DAY AND NIGHT. YOU’RE A TREE REPLANTED IN EDEN, BEARING FRESH FRUIT EVERY MONTH, NEVER DROPPING A LEAF, ALWAYS IN BLOSSOM.
