The best advice for one seeking a translation of the Bible to study or to pray from is to use the one that motivates you to read.

It goes to show how different sets of words reach different people and there is utility in translating again and again, even though the Bible has been translated a great many times. Who knows who might be brought into the fold by a new translation?
