In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. And the earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters. Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light.
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. | |
The Legacy Standard Bible (LSB) is a translation of the Bible in contemporary English. Published in 2021 by Three Sixteen Publishing (in partnership with the Lockman Foundation), the LSB was created as a revision of the 1995 text edition of the New American Standard Bible. The LSB relies on recently published critical editions of the original Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek texts.
Having been sponsored by the John MacArthur Charitable Trust, the LSB was developed by a team of various faculty from The Master's Seminary.
