There Are Differences

There Are Differences.—Among the differences between the English Revision of the Bible and the American Revision the following may be noted as samples of many others:—

"The Lord, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times so many more as ye are." Deut. 1:11, Eng. R. V.

"Jehovah, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times as many as ye are." Deut. 1:11, Am. R. V.

"Their young ones are in good liking." Job 39:4, Eng. R. V.

"Their young ones become strong." Job 39:4, Am. R. V.

"My bowels, my bowels! I am pained at my very heart." Jer. 4:19, Eng. R. V.

"My anguish, my anguish! I am pained at my very heart." Jer. 4:19, Am. R. V.

Any one can see which are the preferable and happier renderings.
