Abstract
The Bible, as the Canon of Christianity, affected nearly one-third of the world’s population. It is not only a historical document which is endowed with rich meaning of philosophy, but also a precious literary output with great writing skills. The New Testament was written originally in Greek and Hebrew. It is a collection of sacred writing of the Christian faiths. It has been translated into more languages than any other books in the word. By now, it has been translated into more than 2017 different languages and dialects. This book had sold more copies than any other book each year. Translation of the Bible not only influenced literature but also shaped the development of language.
This paper is to study the application of Nida’s dynamic equivalence principle in the Bible translation through the comparison and analysis of English Bible versions-King James version and Good News Bible and Chinese Bible versions- Chinese Union Version and Today’s Chinese Version.
This thesis aims to find the differences between different versions and trace the development of English and Chinese Bible translation. At first, the author examined the history of English and Chinese Bible translation with the intention to explore the shifts of principles and methodologies under which various versions were produced, and then the author studies the principle which guided the translating processes of the various versions. Finally, the author provides some suggestions for improvements of the various versions and future translation.
