What is the most accurate translation of the Bible?
There are many views from Greek and Hebrews scholars on which English Bible translation is the most accurate. Although no single version can do justice to all the Greek and Hebrew nuances or is completely free of translation error, we will list four versions that we believe are the most accurate.
These English Bible translations are:
Rotherham, RV (Revised Version, 1881-1885),
the ARV (American Revised Version),
the ASV (American Standard Version, 1901), and the
NASB (New American Standard Bible, 1995).
The latter three deliberately adhere to the most familiar wording of the AV (Authorized Version, or King James Version, 1611), except where accuracy or archaism requires a change.
James Parkinson, a Bible scholar and CQ guest, laboriously published the Revised Version Improved and Corrected (American Edition) from recent manuscripts discovered and published. It is available free online at the link supplied.
