Their main concern is that the NIV is faithful to the original languages while producing a clear, beautifully written and dignified translation suitable for private and public use.

Reviews:
'Over the past 21 years the NIV has established itself as one of the most widely used and appreciated modern versions of the Bible. The quality of its translation reichly deserves this wide recognition and I hope that it will continue to be of equal benefit to many more people in the years to come.' George Carey, Archbishop of Canterbury 'What is most satisfying about it [the NIV] is its combination of fidelity to the original text with felicitous English language.' John Stott, Rector Emeritus of All Souls Church La 'Undoubtedly the most readable accurate translation of the Bible currently in English.' Michael Green |
