    I got a bilingual Bible for Christmas, and since I already have a number of passages from the Bible memorized in English, memorizing them in Spanish as well will be a faster way for me to learn the language than what I started doing above (since I don't have the Librolibre.net text already established in my long-term memory, thus requiring me to, in effect, memorize the same material twice.) I will continue the above exercise also though, to help broaden my vocabulary, especially as relates to modern-day topics.

    In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep waters. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters.

    En el principio, Dios creó los cielos y la tierra. La tierra no tenía forme y estaba vacía, y la oscuridad cubría las aguas profundas; y el Espíritu de Dios se movía en el aire sobre la superficie de las aguas.

    It looks like homes for sale in La Paz County just outside California's border (off Interstate 10) run in the neighborhood of around $250,000, though you can buy one much cheaper...

    The towns are really small. The largest city might be Parker, off Highway 62, which supposedly had a population of 3,132 in 2019, but some of the homes there can get rather pricey.

    As best as I can determine, the version of the Bible you used to learn the passages you've already memorize was Reina-Valer Antigua (RVA). The version you are now memorizing is Nueva Traducción Viviente (NTV), or the New Living Translation.

    Start analyzing the differences between the two to help deepen your understanding of Spanish.
