Happily, the Bible means things in English too. Read Proverbs 3:5-6 in the KJV and the NIV and see what I mean. KJV isn’t just the Word of God, it’s art.

Then there's the commandments... they just don't really sound like they carry any "oomph" unless they are read in the King James Version:

Consider Exodus 20:3, in the KJV: Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

And now in the NIV: You shall have no other gods before me.

KJV to me... It just literally sounds like God is reaching out and grabbing you.

KJV isn’t the word of God it is the word of a blasphemous heretic defrocked priest turned outlaw whom deliberately mistranslated and omitted some of the word of God and, as a result, has caused many to perish.

“So then, brethren, stand firm and hold the traditions that you have learned, whether by WORD or by letter of ours.” 2Thess 2:15
