    I'm glad you put that particular Japanese version into English for us. :)

    I'll have to disagree with you on that. I'm finding the NASB (2020) to be an improvement, in many ways, over its predecessor.

    Not in regards though to bring in inclusive language, and lost some literalness

    Are you saying that because it uses more inclusive language like the CSB, it has become a less form-oriented translation? Or are you saying that there are other reasons?
    Do you own a physical copy of the 2020NASB?

    As usual you quoted my post but didn't answer two of my questions. Please read my post again and answer my questions. All you did was acknowledge that you don't own a physical copy of the 2020nASB and ignored my two earlier queries.

    Nope. Didn't do that. The Japanese Lifeline NT differs in many places from the KJV. :p

    Which isn't, necessarily, a bad thing.

    He was a good Japanese pastor back in the 1930's. Unfortunately, he translated into the very difficult classical Japanese, but then that's what almost all written Japanese documents were in those days.
