« | Psalm 128 | » |
1 Blessed are all who fear LORD, who walk in his ways.
2 For thou shall eat the labor of thy hands. Happy thou shall be, and it shall be well with thee.
3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of thy house, thy sons like olive plants round about thy table.
4 Behold, thus shall the man be blessed who fears LORD.
5 LORD bless thee out of Zion, and see thou the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
6 Yea, see thou thy son's sons. Peace be upon Israel.
A Conservative Version (ACV)
A Conservative Version (ACV) of the Bible is a translation that aims to provide a conservative and literal interpretation of the biblical texts. Developed with a focus on maintaining fidelity to the original Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek manuscripts, the ACV emphasizes a word-for-word translation methodology. The goal is to preserve the subtleties and nuances of the original languages as accurately as possible. This approach results in a version of the Bible that seeks to remain true to the text's original meaning and context, appealing to readers who prioritize precision and doctrinal integrity.
The text of the Old Testament for A Conservative Version (ACV) came from the American Standard Version published in 1901. The main changes done for the ACV were the replacement of archaic words with more modern ones, except for the old English pronouns, which were kept because they are more communicative. The New Testament was translated from, The New Testament in the Original Greek According to the Byzantine-Majority Text form. That edition was compiled by Maurice A. Robinson and William G. Pierpont, and is of the Textus Receptus tradition from which came the King James Version.
