With majesty of language and clarity of thought - the ESV is a grand accomplishment
Dr. Ravi Zacharias, Author and Speaker
We are building all our future ministry around the ESV...
John Piper, Pastor for Preaching and Vision, Bethlehem Baptist Church
Meticulous care and passionate research make the ESV a crisp, accurate, and valuable translation.
Max Lucado
Minister, Oak Hills Church of Christ
At last a translation that majors on accuracy, combined with a modern, fluent style. I am confident that in time the ESV will become the standard translation for the English-speaking world.
The Rt. Rev. Wallace Benn
Bishop of Lewes, England
The ESV has transformed my personal reading of Scripture. My private Bible study has been so much better since I changed over to the ESV. Readable, theologically accurate-the ESV is surely the Bible for our times.
