Vivid English Translation
Of
​The New Testament

Vivid English Translation Of The New Testament Cover
​The Goal For This Translation: The goal was to produce a faithful rendering of the original Greek text in a smooth flowing up-to-date English that is simple, clear, pleasant to read and to hear, and that brings out the vividness of the original Greek text for its English speaking readers and listeners especially in the United States.

The Nature of This Translation: It is essentially a literal translation that emphasizes a word-for-word correspondence with the original Greek text.  In translating there were times, however, when there was a tension between rendering a literal word-for-word translation of the Greek text and the concern for readability and the need for a sense-for-sense translation.  When the wording of a verse was less than an idiomatic English that would have been difficult for the reader to understand, the verse was translated sense-for-sense in a readily understandable idiomatic English. In many cases the literal wording of the Greek text was then shown in the footnotes.  The attempt was made to maintain a literal word-for-word translation to bring the reader and the student studying the New Testament as close as possible to the original Greek text, while providing a clear, simple, pleasant to read English text.

For more details about this translation and its translator see the Preface.
