I have been on that search for many years, to try to find the best translation of the Bible. And even wanted to learn Hebrew and Greek so that I could read the original texts, if I could find copies. The different versions that I've read all have small parts that are just different enough to make a difference. Or are missing key elements or verses. Sometimes whole sections. The Volgate translation apparently was completely violated, and the KJV is missing the entire Apocrypha that it was originally written with was taken out.
"Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you"
Deuteronomy 4:2
After a lot of prayer, wild goose chases, and frustration, there's one thing that I've learned - it doesn't matter in the end. Those are all word on a page. Unless we read with the discernment of the Holy Spirit, it's ink and paper.
"Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life."
2 Corinthians 3:6
When I read the different translations before, I was more often confused than not. When I read now, it doesn't matter which translation I read, they all look the same to me. The lesson is in the heart.
"The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple."
Psalms 19:7
So, He's not going to let us screw it up too much. Otherwise, the Holy Bible wouldn't still be as popular as it has been for over 2000 years. There are several that are supposed to be rather good. I've hear that there are several good ones, and I've found some online that aren't too bad. I still read the KJV that I was given at my baptism many years ago.
Thank you. God bless you all.
