About the A Conservative Version (ACV) Translation
A Conservative Version (ACV) is a modern public-domain English Bible translation completed in 2010, produced through a collaborative, wiki-based translation effort by a team of volunteer contributors. It aims for a highly literal, word-for-word rendering of the Hebrew and Greek texts, deliberately favoring traditional, conservative language over modern paraphrase or gender-neutral wording. Developed and dedicated to the public domain specifically so it could be freely copied, distributed, and republished without restriction, ACV is a useful resource for readers who want a contemporary yet literalist alternative to older public-domain translations. Read A Conservative Version online here, verse by verse through all 66 books.
