It just so happens that the ESV is my personal favorite translation for casual bible reading. I like it so much, in fact, that I sought out permission from Crossway to post the full contents of the ESV on gopher.black. You can find it over here [1]! (TXT) [0] tfurrows - bible translations (DIR) [1] ESV Bible I love the New American Standard Version (NASV) as well, as it's the one used in the Catholic mass in the US and it's a very good literal translation. For study I bounce around between versions, especially since my Greek and Hebrew aren't particularly strong language skills. I need to review alternate translations to find new ways at the text. Anyway, tfurrows, I hope you enjoy the ESV. There's a fantastic set of commentaries that goes with it which you can find online for free. Or, if you're just reading through for fun, you are welcome to use gopher!
