 | ESV Thinline Bible, TruTone, Charcoal, Celtic Cross Design, Red Letter Text
Buy new: $19.79 / Used from: $18.00 This translation is my favorite across the board. It is translated into beautiful lyric prose, but still retains the literal meaning. It is more poetic and easier to read than the NASB, but more trustworthy and literal than the NIV. I recommend that students read Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, Matthew, and Acts.
