Bible Ostervald

French to English Translation Bible Translation 1996

We have, in the translation of the Bible, reviewed by J. F. Ostervald, a version whose origins merge with those of the Reformation, and history with those of our French churches. His tongue has been to this day that of all our sermons, theologians, controversists and catechists. His quotations have filled all Protestant works for three centuries. Several times reviewed and corrected, from Olivetan to Ostervald, she acquired under this last name an unequaled favor, took her place in all our temples, all our homes, in all memories, and never ceased from then on to be both the most offered and the most requested, even at this time and since the diffusion of new translations at low prices. It is actually our true and only ecclesiastical and popular version. "Https://www.lueur.org/bible/versions/ostervald.html"
