    Well, Shakespeare actually wouldn’t be too hard to convert into rap… a lot of his stuff was about gettin’ down with his homies, icing the hata’s, and snaggin’ the hotties. ;-)

    NIV for understanding what’s being said, King James for memorizing verses (it just sounds better) and lolcat for REALLY getting the the meaning.Just take a look at Philippians 4:4 in lolcat:Purr for Bigcat. Allwais. Dont jus purr, jump (Srsly. But not too srsly.).Now doesn’t that get the point across even better than Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice.:)

    Another interesting version or two:

    Southern “Cotton Patch” version, and

    Everett Fox’s Schocken Bible.

    Stay with the King James Version. It’s straight from the original text.
