E-Sword has been my primary study tool for sometime. As a pastor you are always looking for a new way to express an old truth. The NIV both the original and the NIRV help give expression that opens God's Word to the hearer. I appreciate the expanding material that E-Sword keeps adding to its resources.

Reviewed by (David D Patrick, Village of Happiness,, KwaZulu Natal, South Africa) - NIV 2011 Bundle: NIV and NIrV for e-Sword
I find having the NIV Bible (and a few other translations)on my computer screen, is a great benefit as it enables me easily and speedily to move back and forth to different scripture references.
In addition, I find being able to do side by side comparisons of different Bible translations to be very beneficial.
Furthermore, I find the eSword website facility powerful and effective - but I also know that I am not yet au fait with all the power the website has to offer.

The need for understanding (2/6/2013)
Reviewed by (Darrel Yontz, Albuquerque, NM) - NIV 2011 Bundle: NIV and NIrV for e-Sword
The NIV offers a not only a modern translation that you can trust, but it is written where you can understand it. I don't think we should ever transliterate what God has said yet many times understanding is difficult. The NIV offers the simplest language and therefore offers insight into what God would have us know. In Romans 12:5 it says ..."and individually members of one another". NKJV but in NIV it says ..."each member belongs to all the others". You can see that the NIV offers an insight that the more formal translations force you to figure out. This is an excellent Bible for all but especially for the new student.

Interpretive (4/3/2012)
Reviewed by (Bill Moore, Newburgh, Indiana) - NIV 2011 Bundle: NIV and NIrV for e-Sword
I was grateful for the use of today's English to read the Bible. The begats of the KJV, for example, made Bible reading a real chore. Other translations (paraphrased, etc.) corrupt the meaning of Scripture, but they may be useful for witnessing. The more I read the NIV, the more I became aware of its interpretting Scripture instead of translating. An example of this is the changing of measurements from cubits to feet. Fortunately, they correctly translated the measurements of the Temple to cubits. It is not the unit of measure that is important but the number associated to them. This is merely an example.
A better translation is the NKJV.

I was introduced to e-Sword many years ago and have always used the free bible tools. I have used it for writing an insertion in a national daily newspaper for 6 years. It really has been a blessing.
I only bought the NIV bundle a year ago, but I am happy I did. The NIV is my "usual sword" and it helps me as someone who hasn't been to bible college, studied Hebrew and Greek to link the passages I read to what was meant in those languages.
The next helpful step would be if you linked the Strongest Strongs for NIV to the NIV bible like has been done for the KJV. And maybe an Android version.
Thank you and bless you again for your continuous work to make the good news of our Lord and Saviour available for free to anyone who wants it. You have been faithful!

e-Sword is a great help to my message presentation. I has used them for years in my ministry at different countries including Singapore, China, Thailand and Indonesia.
The Bible verses can easily copied and pasted into the Powerpoint presentation. I am so gald that the Bible verses in English, Chinese, Thai and Indonesian can be edited and presented without much problem.
In the South East Asian gospel outreach, foregin languages are commonly used. Even though we may not be competent in languages like Thai and Indonesian, the believers can read those verses through projection. What more, graphics have make the presentation more more impressive and interesting than anything else.
e-Sword is well designed to accomplish the task of putting various languages on the slide. Once the main message is completed, additional languages from e-Sword can edited switftly.
My experience in Thailand, the believers are very blessed with Thai Bible scripts. They are so readily read their scriptures from their Thai Bible, and absorb the truth effectively with visual aids from e-Sword.
So as Chinese and Indonesian presentations, I am so glad that the believers' spiritual life have grown with the aids of their own languages.
Thank you so much for devising such a powerful tool for the use of gospel presentation. May God bless your labor for the extension of His Kingdom in other part of the world.

E-Sword is such a great tool for just reading God’s word, studying God’s word, or putting a lesson together on God’s word. The resources that you have at your finger tips are amazing. One click you can have a dictionary, commentaries, one or a series of parallel bibles to compare what each bible says for a greater understanding and of course a place to put down notes.
I use E-Sword for study, but most of all, putting together lessons for teaching. You can copy and paste verses needed in the lesson no matter what bible you want to quote from.
You can also copy and paste from the dictionary or commentaries which help put a lesson together with ease. This is a must have tool to have for anyone wanting to grow.

I have found this combination of NIV versions helpful & easy to use. The parallel options make it practical when the often slight changes made between the 84 and 2010 versions are required.
A Great Resource for so little money! (8/2/2011)

I am really impressed with this resource! I esp. like the NIrV, which makes teaching God's Word so much easier here in India where English is a 2nd language for most. This is perhaps the best purchase I've ever made, esp. since I'm now writing courses for an online Bible College and can use the NIV (along with the other Bibles) for quoted references. God bless you! Keep up the good work!!!!

I am doing a Batchelor of Ministry by distance while working part-time as a bus driver. In between runs I go to the library with my laptop and study. My computer bag only has room for a couple of books, but with e-Sword I have more room to take subject text books. It has helped me immensely and I like the ease with which I can switch from one reading to another. I wished I had purchased it some time ago. Thank you.
My New software (8/2/2011)
Reviewed by (Richard Perry, Coulterville, Ca) - NIV Family Bundle: NIV, NIV84, TNIV, and NIrV for e-Sword PC
I'm really pleased with the new software. Because of my vision I have difficulty reading printed books or material but do just fine on the computer and this is a wonderful help. Not only that the ablitity to do rapid searchs and comparisons is just awesome.
I can instantly look into other versions from what I normally read, or get the concordance side by side. This software can cut what was once many hours of study and research down to a very short time. I'm still learning and exploring its capabilities but what I have learned so far is wonderful and a God send for an old guy like me.
2011 NIV Translation the Best to Date (8/2/2011)
Reviewed by (Pedro Gelabert, Fresh Meadows, New York) - NIV Family Bundle: NIV, NIV84, TNIV, and NIrV for e-Sword PC
The 2011 Translation of the NIV is the best yet. Usually the NIV was very biased towards pre-millennial and other Calvinist views. This newer translation is more centered.

An upgrade to my ESword (8/2/2011)
Reviewed by (Osmer Harris, Azusa, CA) - NIV Family Bundle: NIV, NIV84, TNIV, and NIrV for e-Sword PC
Good, bad, or indifferent, I use the NIV as my every day bible, and yet I did not have this as part of resource collection in ESword. This to me is an added benefit. The download and install went well, and I am content, at least until I spring for the next add-on.
One of the Great Translations (8/2/2011)

Everyone should have this translation available for comparison purposes. The price is right, and it would be well-worth a greater investment than this. While the NIV is not my personal first choice for Bible reading and study, it is a translation I would hate to be without. I always check it, so am very glad to have it available for E-Sword. Thanks!
A Good Buy (8/2/2011)
Reviewed by (Donald Burton, Perth, Western Australia, Australia) - NIV Family Bundle: NIV, NIV84, TNIV, and NIrV for e-Sword PC
I was particularly pleased to obtain the latest edition of the NIV Bible which I have used constantly for many years. There appear to be quite a lot of changes to the '84 edition and to have the four editions together in parallel for comparison is a real bonus.

A good value. What would make this package a five star value is adding the NIV Study Bible notes.
One of the best! (8/2/2011)
Reviewed by (Tim Thomas, Gachenbach, Bavaria, Germany) - NIV Family Bundle: NIV, NIV84, TNIV, and NIrV for e-Sword PC
I have almost every e-Sword translation available and was especially pleased to get these in a package. The TNIV is definitely one of the best and most accurate translations available today. Gordon D. Fee, who wrote "How to Read the Bible for All Its Worth" uses it as his main translation, as do many other scholars. And the parallel view in e-sword allows you easily to see what changes were made in the revisions. Definitely worth its price!

NIV Bibles Fill the Gap (8/2/2011)
Reviewed by (Bob Bartz, Gezina, Gauteng, South Africa) - NIV Family Bundle: NIV, NIV84, TNIV, and NIrV for e-Sword PC
This bundle was just what I needed to complete my library for my own personal study. Frequently, I find the NIV is the version of choice among many churches I visit, but since I don't have it my library, I am often quoting from other, less-known versions. Having these available at a reasonable price reduces the distractions for my audience.
Nice to Have (8/2/2011)
Reviewed by (Mark Adams, McDonald, KS) - NIV Family Bundle: NIV, NIV84, TNIV, and NIrV for e-Sword PC
I have not used this NIV package very much yet, but it looks like it will be a good help. I wish it also came with the Strong's numbering system. I am a pastor of a small church. e-Sword has saved me many hours in my message preparation. I find its Bible search function to be a big blessing by being able to enter more than one word at a time and thus narrow my search when seeking a specific verse or verses on a specific topic.

I am a regular user of e-Sword for the last few months. I recently purchased and installed the NIV Family Bundle. I am used to reading the KJV Bible from my childhood, and recently started reading the NIV. I was looking for a parallel Bible that will help me to compare both versions. e-Sword has given me that option adding new meaning and joy to my Bible reading. I praise God for all those connected with the e-Sword for the fabulous facilities they are providing at almost no cost. The happiest moments of a day for me are those that I spend reading the Word of God, and e-Sword has contributed immensely to enhancing the quality time I spend with God. THANK YOU.

New International Version Bundle (8/1/2011)
Reviewed by (Kenny Reed, Indianapolis, IN) - NIV Family Bundle: NIV, NIV84, TNIV, and NIrV for e-Sword PC
The NIV is one of those translations that is a "must have" for the scholar and the daily Bible reader. I was told by a professor at Judson College of Elgin, IL that it is "conceptually" one of the most accurate translations to English. I like the way it is very reverent, yet easy to understand. I have several of the translations purchased at this point and find myself using it quite frequently. I find myself in awe of these people who have sacrificed decades of their life so that another generation could peer into God's Word with clarity and confidence.
