There are so many different translations and variations it seems hard to tell where to start. I've heard that many have a Bible to read in conjunction with the King James version. Some are supposedly more accurate or literal translations, others provide context, some are easier to read. Are there one or two companion Bibles you use and can explain why you like then? Sorry if I didn't articulate the question properly.

The word of god doesn't need translation. If you're too hooked up on the literal meaning of a translated word you're missing the wisdom and grace of the experience of reading the bible. If you read something that doesn't sit right with you, then yeah look into it online or something, but in general it's not worth getting into a tizzy about.

I'd like to have something physical, that I can sit on a shelf.

then pick one up at literally anywhere they sell them. Or the next time you go stay in a hotel steal the giddeon bible that's probably in a drawer already.

I just wanted any idea of what to look for when shopping instead of going in blind. That's all.
