Favorite? That's an easy one:
Ecclesiastes 10:1
"The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left" Bible version, not verse, big guy. King James as well as NIV.

Well since it's back at the top, I grew up on the NIV, but I'm not too keen on modifications made in recent years to be a bit more woke.
I'm currently preferring the ESV and while I know JG asked for paper, I have also been using the Blue Letter Bible app for the last few years as it allows me to read two versions side-by-side at the same time. I typically have the KJV on the left with my current pick of translations on the right. I often bounce around between translations to see how they compare to the KJV. Easy to look up footnotes and do word searches in an instant too.

They are all transliterations...by the way...and a verse isn't a version. Please re-read the title and answer the question. I'm leaning towards NAS. NIV second. Those are my Protestant answers. Latin from Greek and Hebrew is probably more correct and less mishandled by the early English, etc.
Pass the gravy.

NIV for me. I’ve dabbled with different translations.
I had a pastor tell me once, just get one you can read and understand. Doesn’t matter the version, even a children’s bible is better than not reading and understanding.
