New Living Translation
The New Living Translation or NLT is a translation of the Bible into an easily readable form of modern English. It is a revision of The Living Bible.
This translation follows the so-called dynamic equivalence or "thought for thought" method of translation rather than a more literal method. The goal is "to create a text that would make the same impact in the life of modern readers that the original text had for the original readers" (quoted from A Note to Readers).
A team of eighty-seven translators worked on it; the process began in 1989, and the translation was completed and published in 1996.
