→Choice of translations
==Choice of translations==
==Choice of translations==
If the idea is to compare a conservative and a liberal translation, I would recommend comparing [[ESV]] (conservative, Evangelical) to [[NRSV]] (liberal, NCC, "mainline protestant"). These have different politics, but they are at the same reading level. Here we are comparing an easy-to-read translation with two translations that require a higher reading level. As for NIV, who cares what the old version said? The current edition is enough. [[User:PeterKa|PeterKa]] 05:30, 18 January 2014 (EST)

It is hard to tell which, if any, differences are can be attributed to politics. As for NIV, who cares what the old version said? The current edition is enough.
