David Hocking addresses the issue: Which Bible is the best? King James Version? New King James Version? NIV? What are the truths behind the translation of the Bible into English?
@Fetrovsky But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye.Acts 4:19
For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.Acts 4:20
I have written to him the great things of my law, but they were counted as a strange thing. Hosea 8:12
@BerylBoanerges The Lord spoke, and He acted. He did not write. Somebody else did. Reding the original language or a particular translation will not give you the full sense of what He is saying, because you do not know all of the intricacies of the language at the time the book was written. That is why comparing translations is useful.
The Lord declared, all the thougths of this heart;all 66 books of the LORD:the end from the beginning in a pure language made of pure words.It did not take the Lord 1,000's of yrs to know his thoughts

@Fetrovsky the words which the Lord pronounced, declared, wrote and preserved cannot be translated and still be his words.
