How do I choose a Bible translation and add it to favourites?
A translation is the Bible text itself, and it is chosen separately from the site language. So the site can be in English while the Bible is in Spanish.
The quickest way is from a chapter page: the translation name is above the text, next to the star .
- Press the translation name above the text.
- Choose the language of the translation if you need another one: if it is not among the tabs, press “Other”.
- Press the translation you want: the same chapter opens, or, if this translation does not have it, the choice of book and chapter.
When you scroll the page, the translation name is also in the bar at the top of the screen. It opens the same window.
There are other ways to change the translation: the Bible icon, the “Translations” list next to the text, or the “All translations” page.
- Press the Bible icon in the site header. The choice of book opens.
- Press the translation name at the top of the window.
- Press the translation you want.
- Press “Open in this translation”: the same chapter opens.
Instead of the last step, you can choose another book and chapter in the window.
There is a “Translations” list next to the chapter text. On a wide screen it is on the right, on a phone it is at the bottom of the page.
- Find the “Translations” list. On a phone, press the “Translations ↓” link: it takes you to the list.
- Press a translation: the same chapter opens in it.
- Open the “Bible” menu in the site header; on a phone it is in the menu .
- Press “All translations”.
- Press the translation you want: its page opens.
Favourite translations are gathered on a tab of their own, so you do not have to look for them every time. There are two ways to mark a translation. The first is on a chapter page:
- Open a chapter in the translation you want to add.
- Press the star next to the translation name above the text.
- Press the translation name: the selection window opens on the “Favourites” tab .
- To add one more translation, open it and press its star too. Both will be on the “Favourites” tab.
The second way is in the settings.
- Press the settings in the site header; on a phone they are in the menu .
- Open the “Translations” tab .
- Mark the translations you want with a star. They appear on the “Favourites” tab .
Such a language is not in the list of translation languages. Choose another language in the same window: the site language will not change.
The translation is remembered in the browser on this device, in a cookie, for a year. No sign-up is needed. In another browser or on another device you will have to choose the translation again.
