I saw this at Pastor Brett.
The top ten Bibles currently are:
1. NIV
2. KJV
3. NKJV
4. NLT (New Living Translation)
5. ESV
6. HCSB (Holman Christian Standard Bible)
7. The Message (ugh!)
8. NASB
9. NIRV (New International Reader's Bible - whatever that is)
10. The 1960 Spanish translation
Amazing how The Jimmy (#2) keeps hanging in there. I expect there will be an uptick in sales this year, with the 400th anniversary.
I'm surprised the ESV is only at #5, considering how good the translation is (In my humble opinion) and considering that Crossway Books has given it a thoroughly relentless marketing campaign since it first came out in September, 2001. Perhaps it's suffering from over-exposure.
...and the humble NASB is down there at #8...
