    I would choose the Geneva Bible. I had to pay a FORTUNE for my copy, but it was well worth it.

    I also have a replica 1611 KJV, and I love it as well.

    You know, I've been comparing the Geneva to the KJV on e-sword, and I really like how it reads.

    I LOVE the Geneva Bible. It's too bad it went out of print a couple-hundred years ago. There is a company called L.L. Brown that publishes reproduction copies. Unfortunately, they are HUGE, and you look like a HOLYROLLER bringing it to church.
    I usually do anyway <blush> and there was a guy who looked to be in junior high school looking at my Bible in church. After the service, he told me that it looked like it was in another language!!

    Regards,

    David
