Is anyone familiar with this version? It SEEMS to be trustworthy, from the little bit I have read of the translator's take on translations. But has anyone used this? Is it better or worse than other english versions?
Here is the link to the actual 1526 page pdf of the tranlation:

Deuteronomy Chapter 21
1 If one is found slain in the land
which Yahweh your Elohim is giving to
you, to possess it, lying in the field,
and it is not known who has struck
him;
2 then your elders and your judges
shall come out. And they shall
measure to the cities which are around
the one slain.
3 And it shall be, that the city
nearest to the one slain, even the
elders of that city shall take a heifer of
the herd, which has not been worked
with, and which has not drawn in the
yoke.
4 And the elders of that city shall
bring the heifer down to an everflowing
stream, which is not plowed
nor sown. And they shall break the
heifer's neck there by the stream.
5 And the priests, the sons of Levi,
shall come near (for Yahweh your
Elohim has chosen them to minister to
Him, and to bless in the name of
Yahweh) and by their mouth shall
every controversy and every stroke be
tried.

darkness, and to every extremity He

in its stones, and it has dust of gold.

Luke Chapter 1
1 Since many took in hand to draw
up an account concerning the matters
having been borne out among us,
2 as those from the beginning
delivered to us, becoming eyewitnesses
and ministers of the Word.
3 It seemed good also to me, having
traced out all things accurately from
the first, to write in order to you, most
excellent Theophilus
4 that you may know the certainty
concerning the words which you were
taught.
5 In the days of Herod the king of
Judea, there was a certain priest
named Zacharias, of the daily course
of Abijah. And his wife was of the
daughters of Aaron, and her name was
Elizabeth.
6 And they were both righteous
before Elohim, walking blameless in
all the commandments and ordinances
of Yahweh.
