Best Answer

Usually the Authorized Version - the King James Version though they also give out the New King James Version. If they are only giving out a New Testament, they used to give a modern English Version. See link.

Where can you get a Gideon Bible?

I suggest that you contact the Gideons International association on http://www.gideons.org/Splash.aspx. Click on your region of the world from the list on the left and you will be redirected to your national Gideon centre. If you click on 'Contact Us' you will be able to order a Gideon Bible or Bibles. However, Gideons only tend to give Bibles free in bulk to recognised organisations (hotels, prisons, schools, medical waiting rooms etc) as individuals should be able to afford a single Bible for themselves. Gideons provide Bibles at their own expense or through fundraising, and so this request is perfectly reasonable. The Bible used by the Gideons is usually the King James Version KJV (or the New King James Version NKJV for those who would like a modern translation). Although the New International Version (NIV) was used on the Gideons UK regional Website when quoting Bible texts online (e.g. see http://www.gideons.org.UK/BibleHelps/index.asp), it is not used by the Gideons in the printing of Bibles. If you cannot get a Gideon Bible as an individual, these versions of the Bible can be read for free on www.Biblegateway.com and parts downloaded also for free using 'cut and paste'. The KJV, NKJV and NIV can also be purchased relatively cheaply from all booksellers and from online book stores. Should you specifically want some of the Gideon's own introductions or theme indices from their Bibles, you can obtain these from their website.


Which of the English translations is the Gideons Bible?

The Gideon Bible is translated from a number of different translations depending on the Country you are in, and whether they have placed them in recent times or the past. In America the New American Standard Version is used. In other Countries they have used the New Living Translation, the King James Version and The New King Jame Version. The New King James Version has replaced the name of God nearly 7,000 times. This is in harmony with Psalm 83:18, which says. "That people may know that you whose name is Jehovah. You alone are the Most High over all the earth. Gideons is only the Distributor of Bibles produced by other people and may have printed on the front "Placed by The Gideons". Hope this answers your question fully.
