KJV is okay but English from 400 years ago is hardly relevant to how we speak today.

ESV, HCSB, NIV, NLT are much better translation in my mind to reach the those who need to know his word.

@Pharaoh481 That argument only works if you failed English in high school, and know nothing of Biblical history.

@Pharaoh481 He didn't say someone actually has doves for eyes. he quoted scripture and he said Her eyes are LIKE doves.....Like making this a metaphor and not literal. Good try on trying to debunk the bible lol.

Cont...Which back then when someone was crushed they were almost unrecognizable as a human being from being beat so badly. So why just use wounded to actually down play how brutal Jesus' Crucifixion was? This is the problem I have with the KJV. is that it isnt a literal translation of Hebrew/Aramaic language straight to modern day English. Not only that you have some publishers leaving out several verses and some leave out whole chapters.

@TheKJVberean Then why is it when the Hebrew text is translated directly to modern day english it has a different meaning than what the KJV has? example Isaiah 53:5 "But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities....And if you do a literal translation from the Hebrew text it states He was CRUSHED for our transgressions....so why is it the KJV has wounded when it should be Crushed? Which is what actually happened to our Lord and Savior....Cont.

@libbyandtai There is no such thing as "less corrupt." A bible is either the word of God or isnt. The KJB is still and always will be the one and only english Holy Word of God. "Why not read them all together and let the truth show itself." Because when you have watered down bibles you wont get the truth. No modern version is the same. Just causes confusion, the Holy Ghost works behind one english Bible and one alone, the King James. Amen

@sirsaint88 my ONLY COMPLAINT agaist those and this is NOT tO SAY THOSE BIBLES are wrong but there missing some things the KJV has so this isnt a sin issue its a THE SARIANS mention IN THE BIBLE have put there bad scrolls THE King James version is good but we must also know When 5 bibles say Haughty spirit comes before A Fall and pride distruction 'and then one version says Arrogance before a fall and pride before distruction we should see Arrogance is wrong translati

King James Bible is Gods Word in english today, has been and always will be. All modern versions (esv,niv,nasb,hcsb,nlt,rsv, et al) are all CORRUPT!
