I was reading this short article http://pastors.com/how-god-grows-you-through-the-6-phases-of-faith/ by Rick Warren, and I don't recognize the abbreviations for 2 of the translations quoted from. Does anyone know what "LB" and "Ph" stand for (as far as translations go"?

I attempted to search in Logos for some of the verses using "All Bible Text in All Passages in All Bibles", but no results.

Thanks

EDIT: Here is the text from part of the article, to eliminate the need for anyone to fo to the article directly.

PHASE 3: DELAY
There is ALWAYS a time lapse before your dream becomes reality.  God uses this waiting period to teach you to trust Him.  Remember:  a delay is not a denial.  Maturity is understanding the difference between “no” and “not yet.”

God says, “These things I plan won’t happen right away.  Slowly, steadily, surely, the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled.  If it seems slow, do not despair, for these things will surely come to pass.  Just be patient!  They will not be overdue a single day!”  Hab. 2:3 (LB)

PHASE 4: DIFFICULTY
Now the problems start popping up.  The two most common types: critics and circumstances.  Don’t worry!  It’s all a part of God’s plan.  “At the present you may be temporarily harassed by all kinds of trials.  This is no accident – it happens to prove your faith, which is infinitely more valuable than gold.”  1 Pet. 1:6-7 (Ph)
