I recommend E-Sword Bible Program. It is very powerful, yet simple to use. It is also FREE. The program is offered as a gift to the body of Christ, though you can donate to the ministry. It has given me all I have needed in a Bible program. Here are some of the features listed on the website:

All available Bibles, commentaries and dictionaries are readily viewed without having to "tile windows".
Create your own "parallel Bible" with up to any four translations. Studying the Word of God and comparing passages have never been easier!
Integrated editor for creating your own commentaries or study notes, complete with Spell Checking and a Thesaurus! Notes are "linked" to the Bible for easy viewing and can also be exported for portability.
Comprehensive print capabilities, including print preview, allow you to create impressive Bible study handouts from the Study Notes Editor.
Strong's definitions are displayed as ToolTips! Just place the mouse pointer over a Strong's number and the definition will then be displayed.
Scripture references in the Commentary and Dictionary views are displayed as ToolTips! Just place the mouse pointer over the reference and the passage will then be displayed. To go to the passage, just click it!
Easily compare the various translations to see how they rendered the Greek or Hebrew manuscripts.
Powerful search capabilities, yet simple to use. Enter as many words you want to search for and select the search style and range. You can even search on Strong numbers and exclude words from the search!
Use the Verse List to create your own topical lists of Scripture, or cataloging your discoveries!
Copy and print Scripture in a variety of formatting styles. This is also available for search results and verse lists.
Graphics Viewer for studying maps, charts, and other images.
STEP Reader for viewing the various resources you may have invested in from QuickVerse, Bible Companion, and WORDsearch.
