The New American Standard Bible, 1977 edition (NASB)
- Format:Digital
Overview
The New American Standard Bible, while preserving the literal accuracy of the 1901 American Standard Version has sought to render grammar and terminology in contemporary English. Special attention has been given to the rendering of verb tenses to give the English reader a rendering as close as possible to the sense of the original Greek and Hebrew texts. Passages with Old English “thee’s” and “thou’s” etc. have been updated to modern English along with updates to words whose meanings have changed in the past 20 years. This is an excellent choice for comparative English study.
Please Note: This is the 1977 version of the New American Standard Bible.

This 1977 NAS version is my GO TO Bible. It is as accurate to the original Greek and Hebrew as I think you can get. I got the 1995 NAS update for Logos first and then realized they had removed so much content from the original. Bummer! :P If you want the whole enchilada this is IT. Sad it is only available in paragraph format.Wayne Anderchuk

I love it! This was the popular version used when my husband and I became believers in Jesus Christ. We will both continue to be partial to this version. Thank you!

$50 for the NASB77...hmmmm. I have several other Bible software programs and was able to grab it for $10 at the highest. It was included in basic packages or just free in other cases. That tells me that there are not huge constraints from the publisher...correct me if I'm wrong Logos or PLEASE correct your pricing...yikes! I still love Logos despite this terrible blight...

The description is in error regarding the translation of pronouns. NASB77 still includes "Thee" and "Thou" and "Thy" as pronouns referring to God. NASB95 is the translation that replaced them with capitalized "You" and "Your". However, NASB(77) did replace "Ye" with "You" (as compared to the ASV). As a stylistic convention, I actually like the usage of Thee and Thou as pronouns for God. It is especially useful in public reading to make clear the distinction. Also the original NASB is paragraph formatted so it is easier to read than the one-verse-per-line NASB95.
