Thank you for the question, “What Bible is the easiest to read?”
The answer to which version of the Bible is easiest to read would normally be a paraphrase version, a dynamic equivalent translation, and a literal translation of the Bible.
A paraphrase version is a restatement of the meaning of a text in an expanded words like The Today’s English Version. Paraphrase is great for reading but not for Bible study.
A dynamic equivalent translation is stating the meaning of the text in a manner that is understood in today’s language as The Contemporary English Version.
A literal translation is a word for word translation of the Greek words into the English as the New American Standard Bible. A literal translation is excellent for Bible study.
SUMMARY: The Today’s English Version is one of the easiest to read but not for Bible study.
