: Re: What English version of the bible should I quote from? Say I want to quote from the bible in something I'm writing (think the famous passage in Pulp Fiction). What bible version should I quote

If you just need a 'generic' bible quote a widely used version like the KVJ as suggested in several other answers is a reasonable default.

However, if you're writing fiction and are using quotations in the context of a character who has a specific denomination you should find out which translations are popular with the characters church. For example, a Catholic is unlikely to be using the King James Bible due to the history of how the Church of England split away. For an English speaker in the US it's likely to be one of these approved translations.
