Tyndale House Publishers ~~The Tyndale Foundation~~ and our friends at LifeChurch.tv have been working together to make the NLT available to you offline on the YouVersion iPhone App. You have a 90-day window in which to download it, but the content won't expire after 90 days (or ever) after it's downloaded. See this post on on the YouVersion blog for instructions and a little more information.

Danielo said...: Sorry for my post. I like the NLT, but was bothered by something. Psalm 146:2 reads like this in the NLT: "I will praise the Lord as long as I live. I will sing praises to my God with my dying breath." The part "my dying breath" sounds great, but is this accurate? Most other translations have something like "as long as I live." The phrase "with my dying breath" is very strong and dramatic but I am afraid that the drama is put in there artificially. This is an example why I just can't make the NLT my main Bible. Maybe you can help shed some light as to why Psalm 146:2 was translated this way. I really want to enjoy and trust my edition of the NLT...please help me!; January 11, 2010 8:14 PM
