The Literal Translation of the Bible was undertaken by a Scottish publisher Robert Young in 1863. Young studied several oriental languages and thus he was able to make an English translation of the Scriptures. He opted for a strictly literal translation of the original Hebrew and Greek texts. In this sense, his work is closer to the Hebrew versions due to its use of the present tense in most verbs, as well as it use of the word "Age" instead of "Eternity", among other noteworthy characteristics.
