Which online bible should I read, which is considered the best among Christians? Can you tell anything about what the differences are between some well known online bibles? Are there any misunderstandings in any of them? Cheers

Here's a link.

It has more different translations than you'll ever need.

Concordant Expositions (pdf format)

Concordant Literal is my all time fave.

It does not include the New World Translation (NWT)

My version of choice is the ESV...but the NASB, or NIV are also good. All 3 are based off of the same set of texts...and essentially say the same thing, but with different wording. Anyone who has ever had to translate anything from one language to another knows that it's not always a direct word-for-word translation. Sentence structures and such change between languages.
