The HCSB translation emphasizes that every word of Scripture matters. A team of more than 100 scholars from 17 denominations pursued two values with every translation decision made: each word in the HCSB must be faithful to the original biblical language, and each word must reflect contemporary English usage. Take a look for yourself and see why the HCSB is becoming the Christian Standard Bible for English readers around the world.
