About this audiobook

Setting itself apart from other translations by sacrificing neither accuracy nor readability, the ESV is an essentially literal translation that seeks to duplicate the original texts while taking into account the differences between modern English and the original languages. Relying on the work of more than fifty Bible scholars, the translation committee realized its goals of word-for-word precision and accuracy, literary excellence and readability, and depth of meaning.Written in language beautiful enough to be used for public reading, clear enough for preaching and devotions, and trustworthy enough for academic study, the ESV sets a new standard—and is truly a Bible for all people.

Ratings and reviews

The ESV has always been my favourite translation. However I have noticed that the translaters are becoming gods. They have deleted many scriptures including Matthew 23 verse 14....spoken by Jesus Christ on warning of the falsehood in the Church Please don't buy this version....if you must please go look for an old print on Paper as when it comes to electronic printing they are readily ready to delete scriptures.

not good. Downloaded ebook twice and cannot get it to play. it shows up in my family Library and I checked my credit card statement and I was charged for it but no matter what I do it won't play.

God's word is life.
