I want to buy a bible. But there's a lot of versions. I want to buy a specific one but it is a NTL version. So advice me.

I would get the Modern King James. It's like the King James Version without all of the "Thous" and "Thee"s in it. It's translations are still not perfect - Hebrew and Greek are very different languages and do not mirror English very well, but it's a good one.

But try this online one:
www.blueletterbible.org

it's the best one I've found because it has multiple Bibles in one, a concordence right in the interface and you can view it with strong's numbers as well and go right to the source language. AWESOME!

Enjoy

Well I agree with Gimzani. But it is important that whichever bible you choose to get you fully depend on the Holy Spirit to give you insight... The bible is diverse and has a lot written which can never be understood by mere men, but with the understanding and guidance from the Holy Spirit... You shall have great understanding of the bible. God bless you

You might like a parallel of King James and New Living, so you can cross reference between the 2
