Some of its translated verses can be refreshing, but on balance it is a [[liberal]] rendition.  On the refreshing side, it translates silent aftermath of the Apostles' argument about which of them was the greatest as "the silence was deafening."  But an illustration of its liberal bias can be found in the all-important John 3:16: "... by believing in him anyone can have a whole and lasting life" (rather than "eternal life").
