New Heart English Bible

The New Heart English Bible is a modern public-domain revision belonging to the wider WEB/ASV ecosystem, the family of English translations descending from the American Standard Version of 1901 and continued in the World English Bible. It covers the complete Bible, drawing on Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, and the English of the World English Bible as its source languages, with the WEB together with original-language references serving as its base text. Its translation philosophy is moderately formal, and it is classified as a substantial revision, taking the World English Bible as both predecessor and base translation. Like other freely licensed digital scriptures, it is maintained digitally and identified by edition dates rather than by fixed printings; as a result, its exact textual history is less fixed than that of commercial print versions, and readers may encounter differing states of the text.
