In terms of daily reading, I mostly use one called "Halleluyah Scriptures" and my daily verses are from the NIV. When studying, I do use the KJV, especially since the concordance uses the KJV. But I'm not loyal to any translation/version because it's just that: a translation. I don't know the original languages, and those are the ones that matter.
I have a preference for those that keep the Hebrew names because the way the name is written is actually how you pronounce it. razz Close second are KJV and the older versions. NIV and some of the newer ones have added some parenthetical clauses (well, I'm thinking of one in particular, Mark 7:19 in the NIV, NLT, NASB, ESV, and GW, that contradicts what the prophets, Jesus, and even the apostles said and practiced.) Let's just say, I don't have any qualms about a person choosing to be KJV-only. Some of these new versions can lead you astray if you only read that one version without comparing to other versions or following the original language with a concordance.
