The LSB is more faithful to the original languages and translates word for word according to authorial intent. What the original author, who is God, and the human author, whom God inspired in the writing of scripture to communicate. So the LSB has done an excellent job to clarify the original meaning of the text in our own English language such that we can better understand it, better understand what the original author wanted to communicate by it, and apply it then to our lives as believers.
