Err... God?



God wrote it with His Spirit in the hearts of the believers and they provided a translation in to [mainly] Hebrew and Greek, those that have translated those translations then created new copyright works (NASB, NIV, NKJV, ESV, Vulgate, etc., etc.). I think it's these later translators the question is concerned with.

For example News International owns Zondervan who own the NIV copyright; I wish that those who got together to write the NIV (one of the most popular English language translations) would have used a CC license.
