The World English Bible is a Modern English update of the American Standard Version of 1901, by ebible.org. Questions concerning copyright: Because this translation is in the Public Domain, you have permission to use, to publish, copy, and distribute the World English Bible as much as you want to in any form (spoken, written, paper, electronic, etc.) - without paying any royalties at all, or even asking permission - in contrary to most other Bible texts. But You can not claim an exclusive copyright for You. You are asked to update your copy that you publish periodically until the World English Bible editing is done, as a courtesy to your readers (and not as a requirement). If you make any changes to the text of the World English Bible, we do ask that you not call it the World English Bible any more, to avoid confusion, unless you get specific permission from http://ebible.org  to do so. The translation and review is currently in progress, so You may check back from time to time for updates. If you find any typos or have any comments on this translation, please send email to editors@eBible.org.

This site ways-of-christ.net is not responsible for this text version: it is not identical with our own short bible quotes in our webpages.
