Any Bible works, but there are definitely some translations that are better than others. From my understanding, New American Standard (NASB) King James and New King James Version (KJV and NKJV) and English Standard Version (ESV) are among the best English translations. I might also recommend using John Macarthur's Study Bible (various translations) if you are willing to pay the money for it, as the added commentary can help a new reader. Although there is also plenty of good commentary available for free online.

Hope this advice helps, and wish you the best in reading.

P.S. if you want to start with the Gospel message like I did, I started with Luke, so I would recommend that.
