My favorite happens to be,"The New King James Bible." The Old
King James Bible used to be my favorite. (I still use it occasionally)

I grew up using the Old King James Bible and the New American
Standard Bible from 1962 on. I changed over to the NKJB in 2008.

What's your preference?

I didn't know there was a new KJB. I will have to check it out.

My American Standard Bible is collecting dust where it sits on the shelf. I use a KJ study Bible. It has a lot of notes in it, but not all are correct.

I have learned to try everything in the light of the Historical Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The KJV is my favorite for reading, but I teach/preach out of the NKJV.

When I'm studying a passage, I consult several - I have copies of most of the major translations.

KJV only even though I do not see myself as KJV only. Go figure, lol

And, while I don't mind cross references; I prefer simply spending time walking its neighborhood (time just reading Scripture).

That; later, when I find myself in need of an answer to one thing, or another, I know "where the stores are," so to speak.

Douay Rheims because it is the most true to the ORIGINAL languages

It is a word-4-word translation from the Latin and the Latin version is a word-4-word translation from the original languages spoken by Christ (Aramaic/Hebrew)

Grosnick Marowbe,
I also love The KJV, but I like the Newer Modern KJV, because it puts back into the Holy Scriptures, God's Personal, Proper Name, Jehovah.
The reason I believe this is better, is because most Bibles continue with the, I believe the wrong process used, of substituting the Titles LORD, or GOD, in all capital letters, where The Hebrew YHWH, which was in the Original Autographs. YHWH was the Hebrew word for the Proper Name of God, and it was in the Original Autographs of Bible books over 7,000 times.
I believe that anyone who purposely removes God's Proper Name from His own book has committed an enormous sin, and will be judged by Jehovah God, The Almighty.
Agape!!!
