1901 American Standard Version (ASV)
Overview
The ASV has long been regarded by many scholars as the most literal English translation since the King James Version—maybe the most literal translation ever. This has made the translation very popular for careful English Bible study, but not for ease of reading. While the KJV was translated entirely from "western manuscripts," the ASV 1901 was influenced also by the older "eastern manuscripts" that form the basis for most of our modern English translations. Because the ASV 1901 is very difficult to find in print, Logos is pleased to be able to preserve and distribute this significant work. This is an excellent choice for comparative English study.

This is one translation which I keep open most of the time. How do I find the marginal notes? I have to keep my hard copy of the ASV close by in order to read the helpful marginal notes.

Maybe the most accurate English translation there is. If you are looking for a easy to read but not so accurate bible then don't get this one. If you want a bible that closely follows that Greek, then this is what you want. You would have to get an interlinear to get a better word for word translation.Frank A McCafferty
