== Bible Translation Examples ==

Examples of Bible translations which are literal (as opposed to [[dynamic equivalence]] are the [[King James Version]], the [[New King James Version]], and [[Young's Literal Translation]].

In Biblical translations, a literal translation takes the exact word from [[Greek]] or [[Hebrew]] and translates it into English (to the extent possible).  The opposite approach is [[dynamic equivalence]] which attempts to translate the thought or idea behind a word or passage without being exact.
