The NRSV is a very good translation known for its precision and elegant English. On the spectrum of translations it is towards the more literal closeness to the original languages but also known for its success in finding dignified ways of solving translation problems in good English. This particular edition follows the standards of English used in Britain, Ireland and the Commonwealth countries. The Collins/SPCK text block is beautifully set with centre references. Highly recommended. (Another reviewer claims ‘verses are missing’. Nonsense. This reviewer needs to find out a little about Bible manuscripts. NRSV is a translation of BHS and UBS4. No surprises: this is mainstream and standard).
