Here at Learn English with the Bible, we use a translation of God’s Word called the Contemporary English Version (CEV). There are many reasons for this.
The CEV is a modern translation.
That’s important, because there are many versions of the English Bible that are written with grammar and vocabulary that are not commonly used today. Even English speakers sometimes have a difficult time with these older versions of the Bible! The CEV is easy to understand for English learners.
Where to Find the CEV
It’s not difficult to find a copy of the CEV that you can read for free. You can read it online at www.cev.bible. You can also download the YouVersion app for your mobile device and choose the CEV as the version you want to use.
The CEV is published by the American Bible Society. The mission of the American Bible Society is to change lives around the world by giving people access to God’s Word. We are blessed to be able to partner with them in this amazing work!
What If I Don’t Have the CEV?
If you have a Bible that is a different translation than the CEV, that’s okay! The best way to read God’s Word is in the translation that helps you the most.
Some of the older posts and articles here may be in the WEB version. We are working to update those pages with content from the CEV.
