I have been a Bible collector for quite some time. I have over 75 translations in print form. Doesn't mean as much any longer because you can find so many online.
A new translation that I am really enjoying is: "The Voice". Hadn't heard of it before and found it on Bible Gateway. See what you think. It is not as literal of a translation as, say the New American Standard, but it is a nice read with some very insightful comments on selected Scriptures.
