We should make these translations available online or for e-Sword

[Especialy the ones in bold, because they translate aion/aeon, as opposed to leaving it as is.]

Scarlett's New Testament (1792)

"And these will go away into aeonian punishment: but the righteous into aeonian life."

The New Covenant by Dr. J.W. Hanson (1884)

"And these shall go away into aeonian chastisement, and the just into aeonian life."

The Twentieth Century New Testament (1900)

"And these last will go away 'into aeonian punishment,' but the righteous 'into aeonian life.'"

The Holy Bible in Modern English by Ferrar Fenton (1903)

"And these He will dismiss into a long correction, but the well-doers to an enduring life.

Clementson's New Testament (1938)

"And these shall go away into eonian correction, but the righteous into eonian life."

Wilson's Emphatic Diaglott (1942 edition)

"And these shall go forth to the aionian cutting-off; but the righteous to aionian life."

The New Testament of our Lord and Savior Jesus Anointed (1958)

"And these shall go away into agelasting cutting-off and the just into agelasting life."

Rotherham's Emphasized Bible (1959)

"and these shall go away into age-abiding correction, but the righteous into age-abiding life."

The Restoration of Original Sacred Name Bible (1976)

"And these shall go away into age-abiding correction, but the righteous into age-abiding life." 


Has it hit anyone that Universalists don't even have properly translated Bibles available, whereas anyone can just go onto Bible Gateway and read a dozen translations that translate aion eternal?

The ones that don't have existing digital versions, someone can scan them and use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to convert the scanned text into digital text.

I asked a similar question (whithout a nice list like yours) an Craig answered that Gary is currently making one Bible ready for eSword.
About OCR. Just my personal opinion but OCR is nice for converting some text but not for legal documents and other document like the Bible that need to be 100% correct.
Basically the OCR process has two steps. Convert the scan into text. Run a spellchecker over that text.
All spellcheckers I know of are in modern English. Words can be added to the dictionary. But that almost means a complete new dictionary.
The usual small print and 'shine through' pages aren't very helpful either.


Personally i would like to know what the 'mistakes in the KJV are.
If 'only' aion and 'fire' then changing these words could be a fast way to get a eSword module.
I've downloaded and installed every eSword module I could find. Currently I'm looking at the differences of them all.
Especially the commentaries are quite different. Some seem to edge more toward UR than others.
Maybe one of the guru's can give a list of the best 5 Bibles, 5 commentaries, etc from a UR point of view.
That would be a good start (for me)

Even with a really expensive program?
