Would you like to see a NASB, NKJV, CSB, and whatever translation you use most available with the Deuterocanon available?

The NLT, RSV, ESV, NRSV, KJV, and a number of other Protestant managed translations are already available with the Deuterocanon included.

I cannot think of anything important in the deuterocanonical books that would change a Christian life, morals or theology. To be honest, I have a similar opinion about many canonical OT books, too.

So, it could be interesting, but its not too necessary, IMO. Who is interested can find them online or in other translations, if its not in the one he/she currently uses.

If the Protestant Translators wanted to include the Apocryphal books - they would have, they also would no longer be Protestant. Considering that fact, and the audience who uses them do not refer to than as Canon - it would be superfluous and unneeded. It people have the desire - they can find equivalents from our Roman Catholic brothers already.

As someone who used to use the NASB more regularly, that'd be cool to have.

I currently use the ESV, and my physical copy contains the Deuterocanonicals already.

Lutherans have historically always had the Deuterocanonicals in our Bibles.

Perhaps a definition of "Protestant" would be in order here. Are Lutherans Protestant?
