(Critical Text: N28, text identical to UBS5)

That site has many other online Bibles, like the parallel Bible does—just more identifiable and authoritative versions. Besides the Greek UBS5 and NA28, it has the Septuagint, the alternative Septuagint texts, the Latin Vulgate, and alternative texts. In English, it has KJV, ESV, and NIV.
