I am wanting to get my wife a new Bible as a gift, right now she only has an old Gideon's New Testament that she brought with her. With so many different translations, I am unsure what to get.

The version she has now is a New King James, but I think a more modern version would help her understand. I have a New International Version which I think is pretty easy to understand.

She wants to keep improving her English, so that is why I want to get her an English version instead of Tagalog or Visayan.

So if you have any suggestions or want to let me know what version you have please let me know.

Thanks!

Your wife has the best version....or you might want to get her New living translation (NLT)

"Our Wedding Prayer"

Lord,help us to remember when we first met,and the strong love that grew between us.

To work the love into practical things so nothing can divide us

Grant us a Love that grows stronger with each passing year.

We ask for words both kind and loving

and for hearts always ready to ask forgiveness as well as to forgive.

Guide us to overcome every challenge

and keep our dreams pure to each other always.

Dear Lord,we put our marriage into Your hands.Amen

If your heart acquires strength, you will be able to remove blemishes from others without thinking evil of them.

I was thinking about this link when I read the original post.. it is a good site for trying different bible versions.. but i like different versions for different verses...

anyway, you might want to consider "Women's Devotional Bible" :http://www.amazon.com/Womens-Devotional-Bi...g/dp/0310916305

It is a Bible and a devotional guide rolled into one.

Good luck and God bless.
