THE BEST TRANSLATION
Four clergymen were discussing the merits of the various translations of the Bible. One liked the King James Version best because of its beautiful English. Another liked the American Standard because of its Greek and Hebrew literalness. The third minister liked the Good News Bible because of its up-to-date vocabulary. The fourth minister was silent. When asked to express his opinion, he replied, “I like my mother’s translation best.” The other three expressed surprise; they had not known that his mother had authored a translation. He said, “Yes, she did. She translated it into life. And it was the most convincing translation I ever saw.”
