Well, like most Protestants who use the KJV, the truncated version. The original KJV contained the deutero-canonical books.
I like the KJV language because it is so tied up in other aspects of our culture. Face it, Handel’s Messiah just wouldn’t work in NIV language. Certainly not in CEV… Blech. Still, my own personal wishlist includes a large sized NIV study bible.
