The "Online Bible" has been available free for over 15 years, even in the
days of DOS (before Windows). The Windows version of OLB offers a number of
free Bible versions, commentaries, dictionaries, Greek & Hebrew lexicons,
and books that can be downloaded as modules. There are some copyrighted
Bible versions (such as NIV) available for a small fee. "Online" is a
misnomer because it is software that runs on your computer without being on
line. but the title started before the popularity of the Internet, so it
has been continued for name recognition. It has so many functions that it
can take some time to learn how to get the highest usability, but it has
been tested by the software publisher with both JAWS and Window Eyes for
compatibility. I have been using the software for over 15 years, and highly
recommend it.
In North America, the source web site is www.onlinebible.net, and they have
a cooperative relationship with www.AnswersInGenesis.org (which supplies
some of their publications as free OLB modules). Various texts from the
Online Bible can be copied into files that are easily read on the Bookport.
A free source for many translations of the Bible that is truly on line is
www.bibleGateway.com
The header line from that web site is:
BibleGateway.com: A searchable online Bible in over 50 versions and 35
languages.

Hi,
There is a list box that expands and offers a lot of choices. Some are for
sale and others are free. For example the Message Bible is $9.95. I just
bought it for $100 on CD, professionally recorded, so the price seems real
good.

The only free version I saw was KJV. I must be missing something.

Jeremiah 29:11 - 14 A .
11 For I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord. "They are
plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
12 In those days when you pray, I will listen. 13 If you look for me
in earnest, you will find me when you seek me. 14 I will be found by
you," says the Lord.
