Originally starting out as an effort to revise The Living Bible, the project evolved into a new English translation from Hebrew and Greek texts . Some stylistic influences of The Living Bible remained in the first edition (1996), but these are less evident in the second and third editions (2004, 2007). As of March 2014, the Christian Booksellers Association ranks the NLT as the second most popular English version of the Bible based on unit sales . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> The Bible in English </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Title page to the King James Version </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> <Ul> <Li> List of English Bible translations </Li> <Li> Old English (pre-1066) </Li> <Li> Middle English (1066--1500) </Li> <Li> Early Modern English (1500--1800) </Li> <Li> Modern Christian (1800--) </Li> <Li> Modern Jewish (1853--) </Li> <Li> Miscellaneous </Li> </Ul> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Main category: Bible translations into English Bible portal </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> <Ul> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> </Ul> </Td> </Tr> </Table>
