The Septuagint (LXX) is the Tanakh translated from Hebrew to Greek about 250 years before Yeshua. It was almost certainly the bible of the synagogues in the world in the first century.
The Masoretic Text is the Hebrew Bible and dates to about 900 AD. It's the source for the Old Testament for almost every printed English bible in existence.

BOTH of these sources are very valuable for study and they agree with each other almost all the time. If folks are trying to make you pick one of these over the other, you need to not listen to them. That's a false choice. Put in the work and study to show yourself approved.

Comment

If the lxx is "true" then the world is MUCH older than 6,000-7,000 years. My research places it at 7,854, but the lxx adds hundreds of years to this date. The masoretic text cant be trusted because of the graphetti (spelling?!), especially regarding the Name. There are older, more authoritive texts that disprove the "gleanings" from the masoretic defacement of the Word. If you are relying on these two sources, you are going to come up with the same errors as the NIV. The Aramaic Peshita is even more accurate than the greek. Josephus recorded in his antiquity & wars of the jews that he wrote in hebrew and had it translated to greek later. Greek was not as predominant in the middle east as some think.
