Bibles

On Tuesday after school, my mom took me to Family Christian Stores and I bought a new Bible. It's the Revolve Devotional Bible. Every time I get a new Bible, I immediately turn to Psalm 91:14-16, my all-time favorite verses. I find it interesting how almost every Bible I have has a different translation of it.


    • My Grandma's NIV Holy Bible- Psalm 91:14-16 "Because he loves me," says the Lord, "I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation."
    • FCA God's Game Plan- Psalm 91:14-16 Because he is lovingly devoted to Me, I will deliver him; I will exalt him because he knows My name. When he calls out to Me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble. I will rescue him and give him honor. I will satisfy him with a long life and who him My salvation.
    • Revolve Devotional Bible- Psalm 91:14-16 The Lord says, "Whoever loves me, I will save. I will protect those who know me. They will call to me, and I will answer them. I will be with them in trouble; I will rescue them and honor them. I will give them a long, full life, and they will see how I can save.
    • The Message- Psalm 91:14-16 "If you'll hold on to me for dear life," says God, "I'll get you out of any trouble. I'll give you the best of care if you'll only get to know and trust me. Call me and I'll answer, be at your side in bad times; I'll rescue you, then throw you a party. I'll give you a long life, give you a long drink of salvation.

and they all mean exactly the same thing:]
