Translation Trouble – 1Ti 1.17

 

 

AV “Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.”

 

NASB Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only ____ God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.

 

The word “wise” is small but significant.

Our God is the only God but He is

infinitely WISE – NASB readers are

(here) being robbed of that important

concept.
