There's a Bible called the Queen James Bible. It's basically the KJV, but follows a more LGBT friendly interpretation and translation of key verses than most Bibles do. However, it doesn't come in a study Bible form, and it's not sold by a major publisher to my knowledge, so I don't want to vouch for it too much. https://www.amazon.com/Queen-James-Bible-God/dp/0615724531

One review by someone named Matthew reads:

> You can ignore most of the 1 and 2 star reviews. Most of them are "unverified purchases" (i.e. they actually haven't bought the book) who are upset that there's a Bible that doesn't hate queer people as much as they do.

>
>In my opinion, this version of the bible is... okay. As they state in the introduction, it's literally just a King James Bible with eight key passages reinterpreted. Granted, those passages are important and they give an in-depth explanation as to why they believe their changes are correct, but if you already have a KJV then you'll probably be better off just searching what the alterations are and making your own notes.

>
>This is just a minor nitpick but I find the coffee-table-book size to be a bit overwhelming. It would be nice if there was a small version available. As it stands, this isn't the kind of bible you carry around with you which is a shame.

That's the best I've got for you, though. I know the CEB translation has a Women's Bible with a focus on giving their interpretations a bit more of a feminist lens, but I don't know where it stands on LGBT issues.

If that doesn't fulfill your needs, though, I'm going to suggest using a website like http://hoperemainsonline.com/ in conjunction with the study Bible of your choosing. The unfortunate fact of the matter is a lot of people who publish translations of Scriptures and interpret them in study Bibles choose to only look at them in a black and white way and assert anti-LGBT sentiment. It's hard to find a study Bible that's explicitly LGBT-affirming.

May I suggest the Queen James Bible for all your personal agenda needs
