Synopsis

Robert Young's 1898 edition of his translation. This is the third and last edition that he produced. Translation uses the same Elizabethian language that the King James Version uses. However, being a strictly literal translation, the word order is different from the KJV, so it does read different than the KJV and can be difficult at times to read. Being a strictly literal translation makes it the perfect study tool. You can now see exactly what God said and how He said it. There is no changing of words, no softening of words or passages, just translated strictly as it was written in the original languages. Text is done in 9 point print, which is larger and easier to read than the print sizes used in the past by other publishers. This translation will allow the reader to see exactly what God said and will allow a more precise study of the Bible. How can a reader study a Bible when the translators have have interpreted instead of translated? The vast number of modern translation interpret (tell you what they thought God meant) instead of translate (tell you what God actually said). When Robert Young translated this edition, he was not trying to please or appease someone, he was not trying to be politically correct, he was not translating in an attempt to rewrite the Bible to fit his theological beliefs. With this Bible, you get the word of God and nothing but the word of God.

About this title

From the Author:

Thanks to all for the valuable feedback you have given on this volume of the "Holy Bible Young's Literal Translation." We hear you!
Some feedback refers to the small size of the print and how everything crowds together. I actually agree with this... and wish we could do better. I tried some larger and different fonts... to no avail. I am actually considering removing it from our available titles. We do not want to hurt anyone, and I think you can actually get a better version from other vendors.
I am going to make a few changes, and review the feedback again in a month or two. I will then make a decision on whether to continue the publication. Thanks again for the reviews... and may the Lord bless you as you study and learn from our Lord's Word!
