    It's worth getting Strong's Concordance because of the Hebrew and Greek Dictionaries in the back. But you'll need to have a KJV just to look words up in Strong's. So you would go from whatever your primary translation is to the KJV to Strong's. There are also older Hebrew and Greek lexicons that have been keyed to Strong's, using the same numbering system as Strong did for his dictionaries.

    Then, of course, there’s research/study online. Here’s some of the places I’ve used:

    The Bible Gateway
    http://bible.gospelcom.net/

    The NIV online
    http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=NIV&passage=all

    Blue Letter Bible
    http://www.blueletterbible.org/

    Bible Study Tools

    A list of all the bibles produced during the 20th Century (including the NW Transl.)

    I forget which one, but one (some?) of these sites let you look up a scripture or passage and view it from several translations at the same time.

    I'd go a sharp RSV (uncommented) including the 'deuterocanonical' texts.
