I’ve been reading the CSB Translation in addition to a couple other translations for a while now and I absolutely love it! I was immediately drawn to the fact that it was easy to read and not paraphrased (& it has not disappointed!) Let’s look into the CSB translation a little more 🌿
–
The CSB values “optimal equivalence” which means the translators were committed to staying accurate to the original language and creating a readable translation. Although no modern translation is perfect, the CSB translation pairs the readability & accuracy of God’s Word so well. This translation was worked on by 100+ scholars from 17 denominations.

Here’s a favorite verse, John 3:16, in CSB next to ESV and NIV:
–
“For God loved the world in this way: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.” ‭‭John‬ ‭3:16‬ CSB
–
““For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” ‭‭John‬ ‭3:16‬ ‭ESV‬‬
–
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” ‭‭John‬ ‭3:16‬ ‭NIV‬‬

I highly recommend adding a CSB Bible to your quiet time; it’ll bless you & your relationship with the Lord! 🤍
