( May 2012 ) The Voice Full name The Voice TM OT published April 2012 NT published November 2011 Complete Bible published April 2012 Translation type dynamic equivalent Reading level Middle school Publisher Thomas Nelson Copyright 2008, 2011 The Voice, Thomas Nelson Genesis 1 : 1 -- 3 In the beginning, God created everything : the heavens above and the earth below. Here 's what happened : 2 At first the earth lacked shape and was totally empty, and a dark fog draped over the deep while God 's spirit - wind hovered over the surface of the empty waters. Then there was the voice of God. God : 3 Let there be light. And light flashed into being. Genesis 1 : 1 in other translations John 3 : 16 For God expressed His love for the world in this way : He gave His only Son so that whoever believes in Him will not face everlasting destruction, but will have everlasting life. John 3 : 16 in other translations The Voice is an English translation of the Bible developed by Thomas Nelson ( a subsidiary of News Corp ) and the Ecclesia Bible Society. The Voice is a modern language, dynamic equivalent translation. The New Testament was released in November 2011, and the full Bible was released in April 2012. Translation team The team developing The Voice numbered more than 120 scholars, authors and artists. The team included Greek and Hebrew scholars, Biblical scholars, poets, authors, musicians and pastors. An interesting feature of this translation was that the team made the unusual decision to render the Hebrew Tetragrammaton as The Eternal rather than a common title such as The LORD or a transliteration such as Yahweh or Jehovah though such a translation rendering is not unique to The Voice there are other Bible translations such as the Moffatt, New Translation of 1922 that have rendered the Tetragrammaton in this manner. Another distinction is rendering a title such as The Word ( e.g., John, Chapter 1 ) as The Voice rather than as The Word which is used in most Bible translations or the less than common expression Logos as used in such translations as the Emphatic Diaglott ( a Greek - English Interlinear, first published in 1864 by Benjamin Wilson ) and the Moffatt, New Translation of 1922.
