and Greek texts. The New International Version project was started after a meeting in 1965 at Trinity

Springs-based International Bible Society) was selected to do the translation.

of the ancient Hebrew and Greek texts as accurately as possible to the modern reader. The New Living
Translation is based on the most recent scholarship in the theory of translation.
