An Entity of Type: WikicatBibleVersionsAndTranslations, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org:8891

Modern English Bible translations consists of translations developed and published throughout the late modern period (c. 1700–1900) to present-day (c. 1900–). A multitude of recent attempts have been made to translate the Bible into English. Most modern translations published since c. 1900 are based on scholarly critical editions of the original Hebrew and Greek texts. Recent translations typically rely on the Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia / Biblia Hebraica Quinta, counterparted by the Novum Testamentum Graece (and the Greek New Testament, published by the United Bible Societies, which contains the same text).

With regard to the use of Bible translations among biblical scholarship, the New Revised Standard Version is used broadly, but the English Standard Version is emerging as a primary text of choice among biblical scholars and theologians inclined toward theological conservatism.
