New Living Translation (NLT)

The New Living Translation (NLT) is known for its warm, natural, and easy-to-understand presentation of Scripture.  First published in 1996 by Tyndale House Publishers, the NLT was created to make the meaning of the original Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek texts clear to modern readers without losing depth or accuracy.

Using a thought-for-thought translation philosophy (known as dynamic equivalence), the translators focused on conveying the intended meaning of each passage rather than strictly reproducing word order.  The result is a Bible that reads smoothly and communicates the heart of God’s Word in clear, everyday English.

The NLT is widely loved for devotional reading, teaching, and outreach, offering a translation that connects both new believers and lifelong readers to Scripture’s message of truth and grace.  Continue below to discover our selection of NLT Bibles – crafted to help you read, understand, and live out Scripture with clarity and joy.
