Green's Literal Translation, also known as the Literal Translation of the Holy Bible (LITV), is a translation of the Bible created by Jay P. Green.
The LITV employs a literal, formal equivalence approach to translation. The Masoretic Text serves as the Hebrew basis for the Old Testament, while the Textus Receptus is the Greek basis for the New Testament.
This translation is beneficial for linguistic comparisons among versions within the King James tradition. It is often referred to as King James 3 (KJ3), following the King James Version (KJV) and the New King James Version (NKJV).
