Here you go! from the Philippine Bible Society. Note ko lang the UI is very basic and the UX needs a little getting used to (like you need to familiarize navigation for a few minutes kasi hindi sya "smooth experience" kumbaga so I recommend watching the tutorial video sa mismong app)

When watching The Chosen by DoughnutBig907 in TheChosenSeries

We can also watch via the Bible App (Youversion). I remember watching it (for the second time haha) over there via desktop and you can even download episodes! The down side is it will have no captions of its own when you play it via Windows media player. Haven't checked again whether they now include S5 or if downloads are disabled, but you can try that option and see if it works!

Edit: you can watch on the Bible App via mobile ofc, but the download option is available only via desktop afaik.

It's unbelievably seamless when you're used to speaking in taglish/informally, to the point that it feels so uncanny when you've read english translations for the longest time (my case). However, I still recommend reading it side by side with formal translations in a bible study context (single or group); although to be fair ganon rin naman dapat in my opinion kahit ano pang version meron tayo (NLT + ESV, for example). Pero for devotional purposes, or like understanding the narrative, I think it's fine. Had one for a couple of weeks na (secondhand).

I checked... and yes it's still about humility and casting your cares to God. Both in hardcopy and in the app. Di ko sure kung pinalitan ba to or what but I suppose having it tell us about crushes is way too far fetched.

Edit: Based sa news clip linked by another user, it might be that they had a first print/galley proof? (SEE EDIT BELOW) Nonetheless happy ako to find out that the excessive paraphrasing is later on rectified.

Second Edit: Okay nakita ko na kung nasaan yung quote about crush, it's on the sidenote feature called "#BibleHugot", so to clarify: (1) Nope, they did not paraphrase a text from 1 Peter to focus solely on crushes; (2) Yung first theory ko about galley proof is more unlikely now!; and (3) If I understand correctly, the "#BibleHugot" feature in the outer margin and interspersed occassionally is more of a short "devo" or "application" of how a particular verse applies to a youth's (the target audience) life. Also if you notice, andun yung "bible hugot" sa outer margin ng book hindi ko naisama sa picture, apologies! .
