Discover what the Bible would sound like if it had been written in contemporary American English:
- "I'm not interested in crowd approval. And do you know why? Because I know you and your crowds. I know that love, especially God's love, is not on your working agenda." (John 5:41)
- "First this: God created the Heavens and Earth all you see, all you don't see. Earth was a soup of nothingness, a bottomless emptiness, and inky blackness. God's Spirit brooded like a bird above the watery abyss." (Genesis 1:1-2)
- "Happy the man who's got a good wife; he'll live twice as long; she'll double his life:' (Sirach 26:1)
- "If I give everything I own to the poor and even go to the stake to be burned as a martyr, but I don't love, I've gotten nowhere. So, no matter what I say, what I believe, and what I do, I'm bankrupt without love: (2 Corinthians 13:3)
