Language changes. That’s not something to be scared of.
This argument can and has been used by just about every English version/paraphrase out there. Once you embrace the rule that a new English translation must be made every time the English language changes, then you will be forever searching for the latest translation.
This is something that I have lived through as my churches urged me to change from the NKJV to the Good News Bible, to the NIV, to the Message, and now I am under pressure to switch to the ESV which is also updated every five or six years. Yet there are many new translations/paraphrases still in the pipeline. I would rather have a reliable, settled translation even if it requires the use of a dictionary from time to time.
