The English Standard Version  is a literal translation from the original Bible texts, firmly rooted in the tradition of Tyndale and King James but in today's language. First published in 2001, it is closest in style to the Revised Standard Version and is well suited to public reading and memorization.

The first Cambridge ESV Bibles  are presented in the slimline Pitt Minion Coat Pocket format. Like Cambridge's Pitt Minion Bibles in other translations, they are characterized by an elegant text design using a font that is compact, yet clear and easy to read.
