OliveGrove publishes Scripture in two Public Domain translations: the Berean Standard Bible (BSB, default) and the World English Bible (WEB). Both are CC0 and entirely unrestricted. Readers can toggle between them on any chapter page.
OliveGrove uses third-party Scripture text in accordance with each translation's stated license posture. Original OliveGrove writing, ministry commentary, study synthesis, page design, and non-derived materials remain governed by OliveGrove and Aamir Din Ministries.
This page exists for source clarity and stewardship. It should not be read as a claim of ownership over third-party translation text, but as a governed disclosure of Scripture text source, publication status, and attribution posture within OliveGrove.
For a full explanation of our translation choices, textual variants, the Yahweh question, and our layered approach to textual notes, see the Bible Translation and Text Notes page.
CC0 Public Domain — dedicated to the public domain April 30, 2023
The BSB became CC0 public domain on April 30, 2023. It is produced in cooperation with Bible Hub and the Berean Bible Translation Committee. OliveGrove uses it as the default reading translation for its polished modern prose and Majority Text basis. No attribution is required for verbatim display or study tools.

The WEB has been in the public domain since 1997. It is a thorough revision of the American Standard Version, using Yahweh for the divine name throughout. Available as an alternate on all chapter pages via the translation toggle.
