"My wife and I were passing out New Testaments at the recent International Plowing Match at Keene, Ontario. A friendly farmer dropped by our booth to chat. He told me this little story.
"A farmer had a elderly friend who was 95 years young. So the farmer thought he would seek the old gent’s advice on which was the best translation of the Bible to buy.
After listening to the question the old gentleman sat quietly for a few minutes, then leaning back in his rocker he answered, " I guess I would have to say that the best translation is the one that is read."
