Did The Gideons create their own Bible version?
No, The Gideons is not in the business of Bible translation. It never has been. A century ago, it used the King James Version. Today it primarily uses the New American Standard Bible. What is often referred to as The Gideons’ Little Red Bible is the small New Testament given to students. It includes the books of Psalms and Proverbs from the Old Testament. An introductory section designed to help students find Bible passages around specific themes and topics is included.
