    I read a different version of NT every 4 to 6 months. I just finished the MLB (very good!); I am currently reading the ALT (based upon the MT). I have a Knox but its way down the list for me (because of its underlying text). Why do you like it?

    Study and Reading
    1. NET (on my handheld e-reader...used almost exclusively...hooray for voluminous translators notes)
    2. NIV occasionally (when I have to resort to dead-tree version)

    Memorizing
    KJV exclusively (want all new memory stuff to match all the stuff from eons ago in Bible drill and youth group) :tongue3:


    In the end it's hard to narrow it to the 2 even for study when you consider electronic on my desktop PC.

    My E-Sword is pretty much always in parallel with NET, ASV, KJV with Strongs, and Young's Literal Translation.

    NKJV for church and NIV sometimes for clarification.
