All Bible translations are not equal, some are better than others. Unfortunately some modern translations are even politically correct. We will rank ten of the most popular and significant modern translations of the Bible in English.
Rankings
1. ESV
2. NASB95
3. NKJV
4. NASB2020
5. CSB
6. NIV
7. NLT
8. NET
9. NRSV
10. The Message
The ESV and the NASB95 are the two best translations. They are more literal translations that are accurate and not politically correct. The NKJV is good and not politically correct, but it does not use some of the more recently discovered manuscripts. The NASB2020 and the CSB are pretty good but they are slightly politically correct. The NIV, NLT, and NET are fair but somewhat politically correct. The NRSV is more liberal and also politically correct. With The Message one hardly knows if he is even reading the Bible.
One final note, the LSB (Legacy Standard Bible) is due to be published in 2021 and it looks to be another good translation.
