I own a NIV Student Bible, and I like the language. It's very heavy, so I don’t carry it with me anywhere. But in my Bible app there are 67 English translations! 😃😆 It's impossible to know what to pick. But I would avoid old translations (even if yhey would be theologically "perfect") because I want to learn contemporary language. (If I need to make exegetical studies on some topic I can do it in my mother tongue Swedish).
