One Message. Two Ways of Saying It. The world’s two foremost Bible translation approaches come together in the Updated NASB/NIV Parallel Bible. This Bible does more than give you two highly respected Bible translations–it lets you access the strengths of the two most trusted translation approaches. The word-for-word literal method of the updated New American Standard Bible (NASB) lets you see what the original authors of the Bible wrote. The thought-for-thought approach of the New International Version (NIV) gives an accurate understanding of what they meant. The Updated NASB/NIV Parallel Bible sets the two methods side-by-side for you to compare and contrast, allowing you to gain insight from the distinctive nuances of meaning of each translation. The Updated NASB/NIV Parallel Bible features: – Updated NASB–the most literal word-for-word English translation available, updated to provide greater clarity of meaning. Vocabulary, grammar and sentence structure have been carefully updated to improve readability. – NIV–Today’s best-selling translation, offering a unique combination of scholarly accuracy and easy readability. The thought-for-thought approach to translation allows today’s reader to better understand and apply the intended meaning of the original Bible writers. – NASB and NIV Concordances–help you find passages you’re looking for and study key themes of Scripture.
