The Holy Bible New International Version

"This edition of the Bible differs from the most common current format in several significant ways: chapter and verse numbers have been removed from the text; the books are presented instead according to the internal divisions that we believe their authors have indicated; a single-column setting is used to present the text more clearly and naturally, and to avoid disrupting the intended line breaks in poetry; footnotes, section headings and any other additional materials have been removed from the pages of the sacred text; individual books that later tradition divided into two or more parts are put back together again; and the books have been placed in an order that we hope will help readers understand them better."--Page xiv
