In the beginning God created heaven and earth. Now the earth was a formless void, there was darkness over the deep, with the spirit of God sweeping over the waters. God said, 'Let there be light,' and there was light.
For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life. | |
The New Testament and the Psalms were released in February 2018, with the full Bible released in July 2019.[1][2][3] It is a revision of the Jerusalem Bible and the New Jerusalem Bible undertaken by the British biblical scholar and Ampleforth Abbey monk Henry Wansbrough.[4] Whereas the New Jerusalem Bible and its predecessor the Jerusalem Bible featured the use of Yahweh some 6800+ times for the Divine Name, YHWH, the RNJB reverts to the use of LORD.
