What Bible translation do you use and why? Do you use a different translation or paraphrase for devotional reading than you do for Bible study?

The King James version is normally used during devotional reading and the NIV is used in Bible study. I will use both in this course.

I m most familiar ith the standard KJV and will use that as the basis for my learning

I use the amplified and the message for bible study. They make it easier to understand. I use NKJV at church to follow along during service.

I normally use NLT (New Living Translation) study Bible- I find it easier and it enhances my Bible study, more specific into modern terminology, and it gives a broader understanding of what the Word of God is saying to me. I also use NJKV Spirit-Filled Life Student Bible which goes into a more deeper Bible Study i.e., word wealth, faith alive, kingdom dynamics, etc which really breakdown the context of a scripture, verse or paragraph to broaden my understanding and the Holy Spirit to feed me from direct angles during my Bible study and meditation with God, etc.

I use CSB for my bible studies because I can understand this version better, and it has lots of notes
I use KJV for church and bible study with my church, because that is the version they use.
