Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Bible Gateway at 3.7 against 75th NSDC's 2.3. Bible Gateway also leads on ratings volume (10K vs 6) and chart position (#94 vs unranked). 75th NSDC's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 9) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bible Gateway sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. 75th NSDC asks for nothing beyond the download.
Bible Gateway holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bible Gateway has 10K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two.
