I think the issue is a bit more complex than has been advertised... In the future I'll probably post fewer options because I've had a hard time comparing so many verses in my post.

I was thinking some would think for sure that #1 would be ESV because of the gender.<br /><br />Also, since I'm learning some "baby Greek" or more like in-the-womb Greek, I'm learning why translations are different and why there may be so many differences to the start of the verse and the punctuation chosen, not that I could explain exactly what's going on.<br />Jeff I mainly wanted to give some slight props to ESV for their gender inclusiveness here and try to fool you in addition.

Also, since I’m learning some “baby Greek” or more like in-the-womb Greek, I’m learning why translations are different and why there may be so many differences to the start of the verse and the punctuation chosen, not that I could explain exactly what’s going on.
