The New Revised Standard Version is the most trusted, most accepted, and most accurate translation of the Bible on the market. It is recognized in scholarly circles as the most accurate translation into English of the original Hebrew and Greek texts. In the tradition of its predecessors, the King James Version and the Revised Standard Version, the NRSV was designed to be the "standard" version for English-speaking people across all denominations. None of the new, more sectarian translations have approached its standards of elegance and accuracy.
