    I use the NASV much, along with the NKJV. Both are quite-literal translations.

    The best translation off the Critical greek text, but 1977 more literal then 1995 revision, and upcoming 2020 revision looks even less literal!

    I prefer the ESV to the NKJV, but they're both fine translations (along with the NAS, of course).

    I also like the Esv, just think both Nas and Nkjv bit more formal!
