There are about ten references to the NIV (1984) to "pledged" to be married rather than "engaged" to be married.  The 2010 translation to the NIV then added yet another use of "pledged", 1 Corinthians 7:27: "Are you pledged to a woman? Do not seek to be released. Are you free from such a commitment? Do not look for a wife."  The more respected [[NASB]] translation of that same passage is: "Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be released. Are you released from a wife? Do not seek a wife."

Grammatical errors creep into Feminist Bibles due to a reluctance to use the male pronoun, such that the plural, gender-neutral pronoun is used even when referring to only one person.  For example, most English translations translate James 2:15-16:  "If a brother or sister has nothing to wear and has no food for the day, and one of you says to ''them'' ...."<ref>Surprisingly, virtually all English translations from the [[KJV]] to today have this grammatical error.  The quoted translation is from the [[New American Bible]].</ref>  The pronoun "them" is grammatically incorrect in this case but is intended to avoid using a gender-specific pronoun.  The [[New Century Version]] translates that in a grammatically correct (but still awkward style) as "A brother or sister in Christ might need clothes or food.  If you say to ''that person'' ...."
