Bibles are going to vary greatly in price depending on quality and features, obviously. If you're just looking for a working bible then you can find some reasonably priced bibles at Barnes and Noble. They have some basic quality bibles of some of the main translations. Sometimes they have higher quality bibles as well. Religious book stores are going to be more expensive, if you can still find any.I'm looking to step away from the silver sword

Wow thanks, what a great resource, I have never heard of this Bible appreciate the link.Great on-line Bible:

Sample:
(John 1:1) In the beginning, there was the Word,The Word was with The God [Greek: ton theon],And [a] god [Greek: theos] was the Word.
I doubt if you can do much better than the silver sword? Maybe supplement with other translations to enhance perspective? Sometimes other translations give a more accurate context to what is being discussed than the NWT.I'm looking to step away from the silver sword

The very best of logic and reasoning to you! I am still on the chronological order of the three woes.I wanted to give a heads up that I might change the placement of a few of the minor prophets in the 2nd of the 3 acts of the old testament in the bible version I'm working on the Memra of Yehovah in order to be more chronological. A few post exilic ones were already moved/allotted to act 3.
I have a hard copy of “the message” at home but havn’t read it for quite some time.I'm looking to step away from the silver sword

I'm able to listen to stuff while working, and I tried to listen to the 1984 NWT of "Matthew" which is still available on JW.org. But it's read by Daniel Sydlik and after several chapters I just couldn't listen anymore. Too much monotone and he had a really deep voice which is even worse. I may try the new version and see if that's any better, but It's hard for me to listen or read a bible where "Jehovah" is replaced with "Lord God". It drives me nuts!I mostly “read/listen” to an audio version of scripture when driving.
Yeah that’s understandable.I'm able to listen to stuff while working, and I tried to listen to the 1984 NWT of "Matthew" which is still available on JW.org.

Not understanding what you mean about working on a version and not becoming toast.I've mentioned it before but I'm scared 💩 less of the warning at the end of revelation as far as getting it sufficiently right when I get around to working on my version to not be toast. I was going to ask that a few of my friends here request in their prayers that I do a sufficiently good job when the time comes that I'm not at risk.
I say version because I'm not versed in the original languages and directly translating manuscripts etc I'm not concerned about the rest of the bible because I'm confident that with the care I'm taking everything I'm comparing and consulting it will be pretty good I know I can do a good job on Revelation but Revelation is a different story from the rest of the bible because it's last chapter threatens you if you get anything wrong in making copies of the scroll. And it's further complicated because it's obvious the original copy of revelation was on hebrew or aramaic but it was written a little before John's gospel whether he translated it or delegaged translation Christians in the first few centuries noticed it's Greek wasn't as good as the gospel. And there are some manuscripts of revelation in hebrew but they are less than a millenium old so can't verify they match or trace directly from the original draft and weren't translating from the greek.Not understanding what you mean about working on a version and not becoming toast.
