Don't know if anyone mentioned it or not. But the LSB is the latest update of the New
American Standard Bible. The Words "New American" being replaced by the word "Legacy"
Actually, it is not a bad translation, although it takes some getting used to the Word "LORD"
in capital letters, being replaced with "Yahweh" throughout this version.
I have already converted the LSB for use with "SwordSearcher" Might see if I can convert
that to "e-Sword" format, since i already have it for LOGOS. LOGOS had it for $4.99 and
that was hard to resist. It is available online thru the "Blue Letter Bible" website.
My versions of choice are KJV, NKJV, ESV, and the NASB. Not sure about the LSB yet.
Tried to use it for a reading at church and did not imipress very many. Probably because
Lockman Foundation in their "Iinfinite Wisdom" decided to change "LORD" to "Yahweh."
For some reason it is somewhat different trying to wrap my mind around this change.
As far as the KJV, it was OK for the time in 1611, but now? With all the more recent
manuscripts available that they didn't have back then? KJV I believe is a revision of
the "Bishop's Bible" which came out over 50 years before the KJV.
Which prompts me to ask the Lockman Foundation, "Why try to reinvent the wheel?"
