  • The Magandang Balita Biblia (or the Tagalog Popular Version) is one of the two most widely circulated translation of the Christian Bible in the Tagalog Language [the other simply entitled Ang Biblia (meaning The Bible)], first published by the Philippine Bible Society in 1973. This translation of the Holy Scriptures in Tagalog follows the tradition of the Good News Bible, an English language translation published by the American Bible Society in 1966. However, the Magandang Balita Biblia is not a translation of the Good News Bible but only a parallel translation of it. The translation is characterised by the use of a simple everyday language, which is best suited children's catechism. Also, like the tradition of the Good News Bible, some publications features line drawings of Biblical events with a snippet of text. Also, unlike the other version, the 'Magandang Balita Biblia' also tried to translate the verse parts of the Bible in verse form, making it more singable when set to music.

  • Nang simulang likhain ng Diyos ang lupa at ang langit, ang lupa ay wala pang hugis o anyo. Dilim ang bumabalot sa kalaliman at umiihip ang malakas na hangin sa ibabaw ng tubig. Sinabi ng Diyos:" Magkaroon ng liwanag!" At nagkaroon nga.

  • Gayon na lamang ang pag-ibig ng Diyos sa sanlibutan, kaya ibinigay niya ang kanyang bugtong na Anak, upang ang sumampalataya sa kanya ay hindi mapahamak, kundi magkaroon ng buhay na walang hanggan.
