How Do I Pick a Bible Translation?

This season my favorite to do, and it goes through how the bible was compiled into the form we know it to day. And i have a whole episode on how translations work. You actually have a lot of freedom between what's called a word for word translation or formal equivalent translation. A more dynamic translation would be a c s b or a n i v. I'm not even putting the passion on here because there's so many problems with that quoanquot trans tion.
