The New International Reader’s Version is based on the bestselling New International Version, written for a third-grade reading level—among the lowest reading level of any Bible translation available. Like the NIV, the NIrV achieves great accuracy through equal rigor to the original languages and today’s English. For over 30 years, the NIrV has made the Bible understandable for children and anyone who would benefit from easier-to-read language.
