2001 Translation – An American English Bible

With Old Testament based on the Greek Septuagint

 

This Bible isnÕt authorized by, nor does it represent the views of any religious group. Its content is the work of more than fifty online contributors, and the dedicated efforts a few translators and editors who have spent more than fifteen-thousand hours (to date) in creating this enormous work, and whose only interest is in helping others to understand what the Bible truly says. Therefore, as a product of the public domain, this English Bible, its Notes, and its Commentaries that are original to this work may be copied, used, and distributed as you may wish. No memberships, sales, or donations are being sought here. However, we welcome suggestions, recommendations, and translating assistance.

 

You will find the 2001 Translation – An American English Bible is very easy to read, but it reads differently from other Bibles because many of the words are far more accurately translated. Please look for underlined word links to see why the words are translated as they are.
