Wow!  Big difference in the two versions.  NKJV makes sense.  The NIV changes the whole meaning.  In the NKJV, I see David concieved by parents who were sinners.  In the NIV, the infant is made to be the sinner.  No wonder some people do not trust the NIV.  Thanks for making that obvious. ================================== Taylor wrote:  Here it is from a couple of popular versions:   NKJ Psalms 51.5 -- Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, And in sin my mother conceived me. NIV -- Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me. Terry writes  >  I do not recognise the verse you credit to Paul and the print in Strongs is too small for me to read.  Could you provide the book, chapter and verse?   Romans 5.12 is the one I had in mind: Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned. (KJV)  Bill I see this Romans verse pointing out that because the first man sinned, we all inherited his nature.  It is natural for the natural man to sin.  This nature can even be seen in the selfish nature of babies who cry for attention, food or comfort, though their sin is not imputed to them. Hope this answers your questions. Terry
