The Holy Bible: New Living Translation (NLT) text for use with PocketBible for Windows Mobile^™-based Smartphone.

Experience the Bible like you never have before. The New Living Translation is the easiest-to-understand Bible translation you've ever read. Yet as understandable as it is, the New Living Translation is a truly accurate and faithful translation, which makes it perfect for both devotional reading and serious study.

The goal of any Bible translation is to convey the meaning of the ancient Hebrew and Greek texts as accurately as possible to the modern reader. The New Living Translation is based on the most recent scholarship in the theory of translation.

The challenge for the translators was 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. In the New Living Translation, this is accomplished by translating entire thoughts (rather than just words) into natural, everyday English. The end result is a translation that is easy to read and understand and that accurately communicates the meaning of the original text.

The PocketBible edition of the NLT includes the front matter normally found in printed NLT Bibles, along with all the translators' footnotes.

Psalm 1:1

Oh, the joys of those
who do not follow the advice of the wicked,
or stand around with sinners,
or join in with scoffers.

John 3:16

For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.

2 Timothy 3:16-17

All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It straightens us out and teaches us to do what is right. It is God’s way of preparing us in every way, fully equipped for every good thing God wants us to do.

Revelation 10:10

So I took the little scroll from the hands of the angel, and I ate it! It was sweet in my mouth, but it made my stomach sour.
