New American Standard Bible 1995 (NASB 1995 Edition)

The New American Standard Bible 1995 (NASB 1995) is widely respected for its commitment to accuracy and its use of a classic, formal style of English. Produced using a formal equivalence translation philosophy, the NASB 1995 seeks to translate the original Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek Scriptures word‑for‑word while preserving clarity and precision.

As an update to the NASB 1977, the NASB 1995 improved readability through careful updates to vocabulary, grammar, and sentence structure while maintaining the translation’s literal character. It remains a preferred choice among pastors, professors, and long‑time NASB readers who value its traditional language style for serious study, teaching, and preaching.
