About this app

The Amplified translation classic edition Bible (AMP) for Android
The FASTEST Advance Bible app and most efficient way to read & Listen & Study the Bible. Quickly navigate to any chapter.

The Amplified Bible Classic Edition (AMP) was the first Bible project of The Lockman Foundation. It attempts to take both word meaning and context into account to accurately translate the original text from one language into another. The AMP does this through the use of explanatory alternate readings and amplifications to assist the reader in understanding what Scripture really says. Multiple English word equivalents to each key Hebrew and Greek word clarify and amplify meanings that may otherwise have been concealed by the traditional translation method. The first edition was published in 1965.

The AMP is based on the American Standard Version of 1901, Rudolph Kittel’s Biblia Hebraica, the Greek text of Westcott and Hort, and the 23rd edition of the Nestle Greek New Testament as well as the best Hebrew and Greek lexicons available at the time. Cognate languages, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and other Greek works were also consulted. The Septuagint and other versions were compared for interpretation of textual differences. In completing the AMP, translators made a determined effort to keep, as far as possible, the familiar wording of the earlier versions, and especially the feeling of the ancient Book.

Ratings and reviews

I love the bright colors. What I am disappointed about is this: I like to share scriptures with people, BUT I can only highlight and share one verse. If I want to share more than one verse, which is usually the case, the highlight feature doesn't work. Also, if I want to do the same for my personal use, it doesn't work. Other Amplified Bible apps allow me to highlight scriptures, and they then go in the sidebar as special for future reference. If you would fix this this, I would give it 5 stars

Great but latest update might have a problem with copy paste. I copied 1 Cor 1.7 but it pasted the next verse. Copied the previous verse and changed the reference to fix but it would be nice if I didn't have to.

The voice is ok. She mispronounces a lot of words. Also, she doesn't always read a complete verse if part of it is in italics. Other times she reads what's in italics.
