Beg to differ on your point about the ‘traditional language’ of the Bible. The thee, thou, and lo to which you refer are a remnant in English speaking society of the King James translation, not the traditional Catholic translations. If you’re looking for traditional language, look to Greek, Latin, and Hebrew which were the original languages of the Hebraic scriptures that form the basis of our modern Bible.

Nat,

I concede to your point, and stand corrected.

I recognize that the traditional language of the Bible is certainly not English. I had poorly communicated that such words (thee, thou and lo,) have been traditionally utilized in Bibles produced for regions where English is the primary language in versions of the Old King James Version. As someone who is not fluent in Hebrew, Greek or Latin, I could unfortunately not appreciate the beauty or significance of such languages.

Thanks for the correction.
