    NKJV

    NASV

    NIV

    KJV

    AV 1611

    GENEVA

    Not necessarily in that order. Nothing against the HCSB or other quite new versions, but I believe that the above is sufficient for now.

    My fave's are HCSB (to me, it's easier to read than the NIV), the NKJV, the NRSV (I know, gender neutral and all that, but other than that it really is a good translation), the KJV, and last but not least, the CPV :D

    in terms of favorite translations...i primarily use the ESV for personal study and most of my preaching. I also use the Evidence Bible in "Comfort-able" KJV for devotional as well.

    I frequently will use NASB, NIV, HCSB, NKJV and KJV during my studies to compare, and will occassionaly use them to preach.
    On occassion i will use CEV, the Message, or NLT during my teaching times to help show the meaning of a verse or passage more clearly.

    I normally use the NKJV, the KJV and the NASB, with occasional reference to the HCSB. Once in great while I refer to the NIV, but not very often. I also refer upon occasion to other literal translations, but I tend to avoid dynamic equivalence versions and I totally avoid paraphrases...
