More LOL cat bible

[mylodon]

Yesterday's post produced some great (and highly ejicashunal) comments.

Today I want to mention another word where the LOLcat translation is good. "Verily". There's a lot of that in the King James version, Jesus (who's always very economical with his words) emphasising a point with his "Verily I say..." The version our church uses has the clumsy phrase "I am telling you the truth".

LOLcat bible has SRSLY. Succinct and spot on.

I can't remember which version of the Bible is used in our prayer books, but I have a feeling it uses "truly" rather than "verily", as in "Truly, I say unto you..." It's sort of kept the feel of the KJ but in more modern words...
