NIV Worship Bible, Large Print

I purchased this for my God mother that has a hard time reading her old Bible. She loves it and she reads it every day.

GNT Holy Bible, Good News Translation, Catholic Edition
$19.99
I am very pleased with my new Kindle. I have been disappointed to discover that not all books are keyed to look at footnotes as you read. Attempting to look up a particular verse in the Bible was frustrating at best.

The Bible for Dummies
$21.99
I have personally found this to be very helpful in understanding the Bible and find it motivational to read the Bible itself. My wife's aunt has been a devoted, Bible following Christian for all of her 80+ years. She picked up my copy of this book, and liked it so much, we bought her a copy for her birthday.

Holy Bible: Contemporary English Version
$14.99
I know most new readers of the Bible might find this "translation" of the Bible easy to read. Let us not forget though, that we are looking first and foremost for the pure, undefiled word of God! I read Hebrew and Greek and ladies and gentlemen, friends, brothers and sisters... I beg you most thoroughly for your own sakes not to even start with this perverted version.

Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: Deuteronomy 6:4 (KJV)
Listen, Israel! The LORD our God is the only true God! Deuteronomy 6:4 (CEV)

In Hebrew it reads:
Shema Israel, Adonai Eloheinu, Adonai Echad
Hear Israel, Lord our God, Lord One
Deuteronomy 6:4

This is the most basic of examples... I can keep listing but I hope you get the point.

To be copyrightable, a derivative work must be different enough from the original to be regarded as a `new work' or must contain a substantial amount of new material. Making minor changes or additions of little substance to a preexisting work will not qualify the work as a new version for copyright purposes." Therefore all new Bible versions must change those simple one or two syllable Anglo-Saxon words to complex Latinized words. Consequently the KJV reads at the 5th grade level. Because of this copyright law, there will never be an easier to read Bible than the KJV.

Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you. Deuteronomy 4:2

For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. Revelation 22:18-19
