Default Re: old to modern English

King James version:
(Acts 4:12)Neither is there salvation in any other; for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved


This is a nice paraphrase, and sounds very modern:

A name? Don't you know that there is only one name that can save you? It's the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

This one is also neat, though more formal

There is only one name that can save men and that name is Jesus.
