The best translation of the Bible is the one you’ll read.
Not True! Research how many time “Jesus” was redacted out of the NIV version and how many times words were changed to make the evil one more favorable. Want absolute truth learn Ancient Greek and translate for yourself.
Here is some scripture to reference on the importance of translation Deut. 4: 2
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.
I’m not arguing your point that some translations are garbage, only that Believers can get into pedantic arguments about translations when the point is to READ it. I am a regular student of the Bible and frequently refer to the Greek and Hebrew texts. The KJV has not cornered the market on being the most faithful translation, but I will heartily agree that in some instances, there is nothing like the beauty and majesty of the old King James.
The enemy loves for God’s people to be divided over stuff like this.
