The NRSV was developed by a renowned group of biblical scholars. Working with the best original texts, they aimed for a literal translation following the maxim "As literal as possible, as free as necessary" (from "To the Reader" on page xxiii in this translation of The Catholic Youth Bible). The translation is also "sensitive to the danger of linguistic sexism."
The NRSV version is perfect for teens who want a literal translation of the Bible in a contemporary setting.
