Talk:Psalm 3

Quotes from Adam Clarke
There were long quotes from Adam Clarke, apparently edited by editors who treated it as part of the article written in Wikipedia's voice. The quotes were neither indented nor in quotation marks, so the mistake was understandable. I restored the original wording and indented to clarify that this is a quotation, and not part of the article subject to editing. If someone wants to take the quotes out or replace them with a paraphrase, that's fine by me. I just didn't want long unacknowledged inaccurate quotation to occur.Alephb (talk) 12:48, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Honestly
Honestly, I hate using this word, but whoever that created this article is truly dumb — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2405:9800:B550:22DD:8998:90F2:89A2:DB71 (talk) 04:02, 12 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Your comment would be much more meaningful if you said WHY you think the author is "dumb".

Use modern Bible version?
I don't think there's a Wikipedia recommendation that articles should use the King James/Authorised Version (KJV/AV). So would it be okay for me to replace the English Bible quote in this and other articles with a modern version, e.g. NIV2011 or NLT2015? Faith- it Matters (talk) 01:14, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
 * The KJV is Wikipedia standard (Wikisource). Several others are in the external links. We have to be neutral. In specific cases, you can point at others, but quote only free translations. (We had a major problem with a modern translation of the Hebrew, for example, because it was still under copyright.) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:29, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
