But You can not claim an exclusive copyright for You. You are asked to update your copy that you publish periodically until the World English Bible editing is done, as a courtesy to your readers (and not as a requirement). If you make any changes to the text of the World English Bible, we do ask that you not call it the World English Bible any more, to avoid confusion, unless you get specific permission from http://ebible.org  to do so. The World English Bible may also be found on other sites, such as the named http://ebible.org, the Biblical Prophecy Resource Center, Biola University's site, and Ways-of-Christ.net .

*) Since the World English Bible is still a work in progress, the numbers after the book names indicate the approximate status of each book:
*1* Automated conversion from the ASV of 1901 completed: no quotation marks, and some of the grammar is still archaic.
*2* In the process of its first manual revision.
*3* First manual revision completed.
*4* - *6* Proofreading & accuracy check in progress.
*7* "Done" (but not frozen) and stable enough to commit to print (but please tell us if you find a typo or translational issue anyway, and we will make any well-justified corrections).

This version without javascript does not include the newest updates. For updates You may use the version with javascript from the above mentioned sources.

Look for the meanings of words like cubit, selah, and denarius in the Glossary. These words are not common Modern English, but are necessary to preserve the historical and literary form of the Holy Bible.
