@Knittinggrace you are a bit spoiled in English: to have a good translation that's usable for 30 years (and 300 years for that matter). It's a bit more complicated in German. I use various translations and never the one I had as a child :(
But no. I don't really memorize on purpose. It happens sometimes by accident though, when I keep reading the same few verses over and over...
May the Lord shine through you and your family!
